2 together is a Hi Hat.

12" or less is a splash.

14" to 18" is a crash.

20" or more is a ride.

If it has bent sides it is most likely a china, which are usually 16" to 20".

Sometimes you can get something called a crash ride, this is usually 18".

There are all sorts of weird or unusual cymbals that make different sounds in addition to the ones listed above.

Should you get a snare drum or drum set?

It depends on what you want. A snare drum produces higher and lower sounds, if that's all you want, and a drum set comes with a snare drum, and a base drum (lower sounds only), and another drum that has higher sounds only (sorry, i don't know the name). Also a drum set comes with cymbals.
