Try the Everyman Photo Contest. The prizes aren't real big ($50 for 1st prize) but it's better than nothing, right?

There are tons of them online and free but be careful because you'll get e-mail asking you to give permission and $ to let them put your image in a book. if anyone want's to publish your images they should pay YOU not the other way around. Enter as many as you can find and there are also a lot of groups on Yahoo and such that allow you to post your images and get feedback. Good luck!

www.worth1000.com is a great contest site. They have several ongoing contests at a time. Your photos are voted on by your peers through an extremely fair voting system. They also have contests for photoshop, writing, and illustrations. Worth also has a forum where you can talk about the latest subjects in photography and even get feedback on your photos.
