Kicks ARE drums. They are called Kick Drums because they are the big bass drum that the drummer uses his feet to play.
I think you might be getting bass sounds (ie, bass lines, as played by a bass guitarist) and bass drums confused...
Bass sounds (think the intro to Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes), make a kind of dummmmm-dummmm sound.
Bass Drums (Kicks) make a DUFF-DUFF-DUFF-DUFF sound (think the intro to most house tracks).
So, a typical drum pattern mught consist of:
Kick Drums (Kicks)
Snare Drums
Hi-Hats (closed and open hi-hats)
Hand Claps
Hand Claps and snare drums are usually interchangeable.
There are also LOADS of additional percussion sounds that go along with your Kick/Snare/Hat combos.
But to be honest, mate, all this is REALLY easy to learn using Google.

In an introduction to house music, for example :
rhythm : 1-2-3-4
kick-kick-kick-kick
then I'll add a snare:
kick- snare - kick- snare
then what I have to add for making a complex beat ? Thank you!
Patch is perfectly correct in everything he states.
The one point I would add is that in music theory - which in this case applies to both DJing & music production - the beat is part of the 'time signature' of a song.
Almost all modern dance music has a kick drum sound on every 'beat'. So each DUFF-DUFF-DUFF-DUFF sound Patch talks about is a 'beat'.
Four beats then makes a 'bar'. In music theory this is known as a 4/4 time signature - and accounts for 99% of modern music you will listen to.
Spend 10 minutes watching this video; it explains beats / bars / phrases nice and simply.
