he was king of Egypt.

As the Pharaoh in The Bible is never explicitly named and dating the events of the Bible (if they occurred) is very difficult, there is no consensus over who the Pharaoh was that Moses was dealing with. The most common assumption is that is was Ramses II due the mention of the store-houses of Pithom and Raamses.

According to Genesis pharaoh's daughter found Moses which would make Ramses Moses' grandfather yes?

Answer 1it was in exodus not genesis.. and no it would not be his grandfather Ramses was young when moses was found..Answer 2Firstly, although Pharaoh's daughter found Moses and raised him, she was not his mother. Secondly, Pharaoh is a title and the Pharaoh at the time of Moses' youth was not the same Pharaoh (presumably Ramses) when Moses came to request his people's emancipation. As Answer 1 notes, this part is in Exodus Chapter 4.

What is pharaoh's real name?

Presuming you mean the pharaoh of the Exodus - the real name of this pharaoh was probably Amenhotep II since this is the pharaoh who was ruling at the time of the Exodus in c. 1441 BC. The name was not mentioned because this was a literary custom of those earlier times when Moses wrote, whereas we see later pharaohs such as Nechoh being mentioned by name. Another possibility which is currently a view held by a number of scholars in the field is that the Egyptian chronology needs revision by several hundred years at least and so this would put it under an earlier pharaoh.

Which pharaoh was asked to release the Hebrews?

There is no indication of his name in the Bible, but scholars call him Pharoah 128, to presume it was Ramses or anyone else is best left to those who do not answer questions on here. And incidentally, no one, Pharaoh or otherwise, drove Moses out of Egypt. Moses went to Pharaoh and demanded he let Moses and his people go (they were slaves in Egypt, not people Pharaoh would be inclined to drive away since they were his cheap labor force). When Pharaoh would not let Moses and the Israelites go, 10 plagues descended upon Egypt one at a time until finally Pharaoh let Moses and his people leave. Pharaoh quickly changed his mind and chased Moses (to either capture them all or kill them all) to the Red Sea where Moses and his people safely crossed the sea and Pharaoh's men/army were all swallowed up by the sea.
