Default Noobie Question. Need Help Fast!

My driveway is on a 40 degree uphill. When I push in the clutch to start the engine, the car starts to roll backwards. Keep in mind that the parking brake is still on and the car is still in 1st gear(I park the car in 1st gear). Is this normal? Is the car supposed to roll back even with the e-brake and 1st gear engaged?

P.S This is my first manual tranny car. I had never driven stick previously. I had to learn how to drive stick on this car. Could I have somehow messed something up? There was this one time when I drove about a block with the e-brake on(accidentally).. could this have worn out my e-brake or something?
