Your native language shouldn't make a difference on your ability to learn another one. You could speak Klingon as your native language and still have no problems learning Japanese!
I would just try to find a japanese class at your high school or local community college (if you're old enough to attend those). One thing I've noticed with Japanese teachers is that you're generally pretty limited with options to choose from, so you may end up with a good teacher or not and be stuck. Unless you're in the bay area, ca, it might be different. I wouldn't worry about that bit.
If you can't get into a class for any reason at all, then save up some cash and go buy Rosetta Stone. Theoretically, you should be conversational within two or three months. You won't be able to read, though, so you'll have to pick that up elsewhere. Don't worry! There are a lot of free online resources for learning to read japanese.
Good luck!
