I recommend the Canon S95 ($370) with the Canon underwater housing ($250). That should get your started. The Canons (S and G series) will allow you to shoot in full manual and RAW. The S95 also shoots HD video which is nice. The camera is nice and small so it's easy to take anywhere.
I just bought that setup for my wife but I won't have any pictures or video from it until after our sea lion dive on Hornby Island in two weeks.
A bigger recommendation is to learn to dive first and become comfortable in the water. No need to introduce extra task loading when it's not necessary. Work on your buoyancy and then work on your buoyancy some more.
