If you just want to get your work done, there are some components already avaiable in Joomla Extension's website to your form's needs. CkForms is a good one, you can create simple forms with it that are automatically saved in the database (supports upload of files too).
If you want to learn how to write extensions in Joomla, you should read Joomla Official Documentation website.
Extensions in Joomla are divided in 'Components', 'Modules' and 'Plugins'. More informations about these differences can be found here and here.
What you're trying to achieve sounds a 'component' to me. Downloading the CkForms and reading it's source code should get you started to Joomla's way of writing components.
EDIT: Joomla has a huge API with a lot of features. It has a database module of it's own, with insert methods and such. Reading Joomla's API website before implementing your component it's a good idea to avoid 'reinventing the wheel' and it's a good practice since those methods are extensively tested by all Joomla users.
GmonCGmonCThe JForm class helps you build forms.
Documentation can be found here:
- joomla CMS: http://docs.joomla.org/API16:JForm
- joomla API: http://api.joomla.org/11.4/Joomla-Platform/Form/JForm.html
This class provides you with ready to use form elements and form loading and/or processing methods
This class includes validation methods, date picker control, color picker, etc.
Of course, as another mentioned above, if you are building a module, component, or application, you will need to learn how to to develop a module, component or application. Of these three, the module is the easiest to implement.
The application gives you much freedom b/c you are not constrained to the CMS paradigm, front and back end complexities. However, there is little documentation about how to develop applications with Joomla framework b/c joomla as a framework is relatively new
This tutorial gets you started understanding how to use JForm to create a form in Joomla: http://www.ostraining.com/blog/how-tos/development/getting-started-with-jform/

Take a look at the Chronoforms extension - does more than you want.
You have two options:
- Use an already built custom form extension
- Create your own custom form extension (or outsource it)
Now if you only want to modify the user registration form, then you can do some PHP customization to accomplish your goal.

- Create Model.
- Create Table.

Making forms in Joomla can be done in a couple of ways.
If you just wanted a contact us, you can just create a page with a menu item for the User contact form. This gives you a page with a Members address and contact form. So all you would need to do was add the user as the company of the websites home address and email. But the form is very basic, name, title, textarea for message.
Next up from that you could just make a Custom HTML module add add a form to it in plain HTML like +Sean said above this, you would need to code in PHP your own form process script. You would not get error in form data checking unless you also wrote it.
Next you might rather look on the Joomla Extension Directory JED for one of the good extensions for 3 and 2.5 Joomla RSForms!Pro is good, and can do all we have needed. This lets you add fields one by one and move your form around. Then can auto generate or custom the html of the form.
tristanbaileytristanbaileyYou can use plugin to insert external php
form in content. It is easy and you don't need to make plugin etc. Please use this.

- Gespeicherte Daten überall im Joomla! Content anzeigen. Dies umfasst die Wahl, welche Felder sichtbar sind und vollständige Kontrolle darüber welche Datensätze angezeigt werden. Das alles wird über einen kleinen String, den Sie in Ihren Beitrag einfügen, gesteuert.
- Gespeicherte Daten im Frontend bearbeiten. Sie haben, bis auf Feldebene genau, vollständige Kontrolle darüber, wer welche Daten bearbeiten darf.
