man, I think there's no such program, and if u get it, you wont be able to just make a model just like that. It would take you a few months to learn to work with the program.
I see a lot of ambition in you, that's good.
If you don't want to spend few months learning how to use that program, just go to www.wc3sear.ch
and find yourself some models for your rpg. (there can be found many good models)
Just don't forget to give a credit to the author. You don't want him/her to stop making cool models??!!??

You can use Blender3d. Granted, this has a steep learning curve, but is quite powerful once mastered.
Here is the main page. (http://blender3d.org/)
Here are some tutorials. (http://blender3d.org/cms/Tutorials.243.0.html)
Then there is Wings3d. You cannot animate using this software, but you can create models. Fairly simple to learn.
Here is the main page. (http://www.wings3d.com/)
Here is an amazing set of tutorials. (http://www.geocities.com/paulthepuzzles/aardvarks.html)
There is also Anim8tor. I'm not sure if you can use this with Warcraft, but try it out. It is the simplest to use out of the three mentioned.

XZMinX was correct when he said you can't make models just "like that." You must commit your time to learning the software. It is better for you just to use pre-made models (http://wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Models&sid=), but if you really need to make your own, learn the software.
I would recommend doing the modelling in Wings, and animating in Blender.
