Actually I surfed a bit and this might be a much better video for you, because it references a free drum program that sounds like it is closer to one with the numbers you mentioned in a prior post (with the drum names being on lines numbered 36 through 44 and may help get you actually get started.

Don't be put off by the youth and beanie the guy is actually pretty good at explaining clearly what he is doing




And just so you know we all had to travel the same road you are currently going down. When I started trying to use midi in my recording I could not program drums sounds that were not downright embarrassing and unusable. Now I can at least get some sounds that are passible.
In this song (below) I used a hybrid method of both trying to play in midi from my physical keyboard as well as double clicking notes into the grid and some of the other techniques he talks about in the video to make it less robotic sounding. This track is basically straight acoustic guitar rhythem , acoustic guitar riffs run thru effects , vocals , midi drums and midi bass
