My engine sounded small ticking then I was driving I heard a sound, and the ticking is super loud. It's there when the car starts and when I accelerate it gets loud. When I stop at a stop sign it almost stalls like there is no oil getting to it.

This sounds like a lifter problem is a connecting rod bearing. Do you have a check engine light on? This can tell us which problem you have. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response. We need to hear the noise, so we know which direction to go to help you fix the car. It takes time to upload so please be patient.

Here is how to run the codes to see if any are stored:
