You need to learn the Heimlich maneuver from a qualified instructor. You do not want to learn how to do it over the Internet.
The good news is that training for this is often free or is combined as part of another important course such as basic CPR.
I recommend that you call your local fire department (NOT 911) to inquire about the next available course.
Both the Heimlich maneuver and CPR are important skills that I think everyone should take the time to learn. Neither the Heimlich maneuver or CPR are difficult to learn. There are a few simple steps to each. However, you need to practice and "feel" is an important aspect of both.
For example, when applying the Heimlich maneuver, you could inadvertently break a rib and puncture a lung. While clearing the airway is a primary concern, if you have never held a person correctly or applied the right amount of pressure in the right location preforming the Heimlich without causing further damage requires a small amount of skill.
Classes for both CPR and the Heimlich maneuver are typically taught over the course of a weekend or a few evenings. I highly recommend that you consult local medical professionals and obtain the correct training for this. You could really help someone out!
