It's a very very common problem, usually a dirty iacv (idle air control valve)

undo it and spray it out with brake cleaner, let it dry completely and put it back on and it should fix it.

use the search tool and you can find tons of diy fixes for this

it could be that because the iacv or ur idle screw is turned to high, in my car, if the idle screw is to high, then it surges.. try that maybe?
