anyways it was fine for 10-15 mins till i got close to home but the car has just started to rev between 2000.3000 rpms by its self with no push on the pedal basically it wants to move on its own its happening in drive with out me doing anything.

Get a friend to push the accelerator while you look at the throttle body to make sure that the cable is moving freely and the throttle hasn't stuck open. Might be worth cleaning the ICV. (Guide here)
If the EML has come on, a code read is your first step. Once the fault has been identified, then you can go about fixing it otherwise it's just pure guess work.

Have you had the codes read?

People could make suggestions on what it might be, but then you could end up throwing money at a problem that doesn't exist.
Someone close by you may have a code reader and will plug it in for a few beer tokens.
