Hectorallan, if you can't provide a picture to the forum super fast, I'd recommend driving straight to a dealership.
A picture, because what you're saying may be perfectly normal [timing belts ARE toothed after all], but if it's not normal you could be facing a catastrauphic failure. Sorry bra, wish I was joshin' ya.

Is the noise a sort of rattle that goes away as you rev up?

If so, your dampener/tensioner/roller assembly may be going bad allowing your timing belt to go slack, which is not a good thing. I would say drive as little as possible if at all until you get it fixed.

and if it's your hydrolic tensioner, you may want to not replace it and use this instead: Get rid of the hydraulic tensioner (timing belt)
