The role of the Basilisk in Harry Potter is the large snake who can harm people if they see it's eyes. The basilisk is the snake that Voldemort "Tom Riddle" uses to make Harry come to the Chamber of Secrets because the basilisk kidnaps Ginny, Ron's younger sister and takes her to the Chamber of Secrets where Voldemort is.

Tom Marvolo Riddle, aka Lord Voldemort. If you wanted to know, how you create a basilisk is by placing a chicken's egg under a snake. Also, Basilisk means "Little Crown" in Latin, I believe.
