That you practice with a metronome is good, but WHAT and HOW you practice matters a great deal.
Get some simple snare exercises and a pad; don't worry about the whole kit just yet. Set the metronome, and count out loud as you play.
That last part is very important.
Count out loud. OUT LOUD!!!
I have been counting out loud every time I play, my teacher makes sure I am always counting while playing.
