I'm sort of new to Linux too, but is the modem on and plugged in and working properly? When you do ifconfig are you logged in as root? Try logging in as root. Also try checking the hardware compatibility list at http://www.redhat.com. Als owhat version of Redhat is it? If its 7.x then it should be fine, but if its anything higher (not sure what the newest Redhat version is, I'm a Mandrake user) then you will have to compile your own Kernel.
