How could I learn how to know where are piano chords like Cm7, D#m6, Amaj9 etc... you know,,those, which have something in the end of it(C,D,E,F,G,A,B) like example "maj6" or "m7b5" :D
The easiest way for this, might be that I could get those from here at the bottom of the page "Piano Chord Chart", but it's a bit obstructive.
I searched from Google for free online lessons, but I didn't find any.
By the way I have played piano now about 3 months.. but I played a year many many years ago, and I started again, and I want to learn more and more

Those chords structure depend on the kind of music you wanna play.
If you want to play jazz, try to find any book with jazz standards, and they always have those chords explained at the beginning of the book.
I could explain it to you now, but it would take loads of time, and the other reason is that i can't remember how to say -5 for instance in english , so try to find any theory<jazz, classic, pop> book and figure that out.

I reckon the best way to learn them is to work them out yourself, working from the original chord.
For example, Dm7b5 is a D minor 7, D F A C, with a flattened 5th. The 5th note in the D minor scale is the A, and so you flatten the A to Ab, and you get D F Ab C. If you try it out with each chord, you should get the hang of it. Do that for each type of thing at the end of a chord, and you should get the hang of all of them and be able to use them easily : ) hope you understand my ramblings :S

Oh, and I believe what the previous poster was talking about with -5 is what's known as a diminished chord (also called a flattened fifth). It refers to an interval of 6 semitones (steps on the chromatic scale) between notes in a chord.
