I am a novice programmer in Java.

I would stick to first learning java. Tools like Ant and Maven are mostly used for packaging a project and library dependencies.
Both tools are also powered by Java so after learning abit of Java it will definately be easier to master them.
Basically when you feel like you need a solution for building your projects, it is time to have a look at Ant or Maven.
For myself I started using Ant when I got started with Hibernate, Maven came years later.
