When I start my car is all fine, there's no noise; but when I put it on drive it makes a horrible sound, when I put it drive it wont move it just goes backwards. Even though when is on park it goes backwards, I turned it off and left it on park and it still goes backwards unleess I put the e-brake. The miles arrow goes up without me pressing the gas. People is telling either is the axles or the transmission. Does anyone can help with this?

Assuming the cv joints on the axles haven't seperated, this is a transmission problem. You are going to need a rebuilt transmission.
