The Wampanoag tribes (including the Massachusett, Nauset, Nantucket and Pennacook) were located in the area that became eastern Massachusetts. They spoke a language called Natick.
The Narragansett tribe were immediately to their south in the area that became Rhode Island. They seem to have been closely related to the Wampanoags, but the Narragansett clearly dominated them and other small groups in the same area, and forced them to pay tribute in the form of deer hides, shell beads and so on. The Narragansett language is almost identical to Natick.
Examples of words in the two languages are:
English......................Natick...........................Narragansett
crow, raven................konkont........................kaukont
deer...........................ahtuk............................attuk
it is broken.................poksheau......................pokesha

Was the Wampanoags the Native American tribe that built an alliance with the Pilgrims?
No, in fact the Narragansett were one of the dominating forces of the region and effectively subjugated the Wampanoag and many other native groups in the area. They expected payment of tribute in the form of shell beads, deer hides, foodstuffs and other goods - so the relationship was like conqueror and conquered. By 1620 the Narragansett were very suspicious of the friendly relationships between the Wampanoag and white settlers. This led eventually to open warfare in 1632 when the Narragansett attacked Wampanoag villages, but they were driven off (with help from the English).
