You either have a bad Idle Air Control Valve or a vacuum leak.
I am giving you a walk through diagnostic for your situation to elimate any other possibilities and to show you how to check aforeementioned parts. You can go to any Advance Auto or Auto Zone and they will read trouble codes for free. Just use the link below;
