A good build against noobs are void ray spam, this pretty much works all the time until you get in to higher ranks where they play more aggro and therefore won't make the tactic work.
Around 3 warp gates is the most effective starter I believe, same as the famous 3 barracks terran build.
Remember to scout, its an important part of the game, you can send your workers out in the beginning of the game or send observers. Remember to micro them.
Don't be afraid to go a little crazy, inventing new amazing builds can take your enemy with surprise and therefore win you a game.
Another note: I found an amazing custom map called "photon cycles" its like a pvp version of snake, try it out :P
