It sounds like you are grounding out somewhere from your battery. Remove the battery cables and check to see if the insulation is broken on them at all and if so are they touching any part of your engine bay to ground out?

Also you should be able to see if the alternator pulley is being driven from the engine when the engine is on. I know you said you cant get it to turn on but jump start it and see.
