:hi:

am i allowed to put a copyright notice on my script

If it's your original work, yes.

do i have to fill in any forms or pay anything to someone for copyright?

No,
only if you want to.

Read this below from Copyright.gov:

Do I have to register with your office to be protected?
No. In general, registration is voluntary. Copyright exists from the moment the work is created. You will have to register, however, if you wish to bring a lawsuit for infringement of a U.S. work.
