Ok, First of All You Have To Make a Grid.
You can either have an Array For This Grid; or you can have guidelines for this Grid.

You keep track of the points of part snake either in a object or an array (your choice)

When you eat food in Snake you do not "grow" persay; you dont delete the last part of snake on next movement.

i don't understand what you mean by make screen smaller... im confused about that. or are you using RTP ?

Well, its assumed your using either JFrame or an applet to make this game (after all, graphics need a container of some sorts). You can just use the setSize method (should be in both JFrame and applet).
