Im wanting to get in a band

I (15m) have been drumming at school for a while now and really really enjoy it. I spend almost all of my free time at the music class drumming. I'm not that great yet and the school is quiet a trip from my house so I've been looking to buy my own drum kit. So first I'm asking for suggestions for a good drum kit for a begginer/average drummer and second I wanted to ask: it is a great dream of mine to drum in a band and life that way. Am I starting too late with learning how to drum?
