So I would give another vote for a basic 5x5 program. Maybe a day on and a day-off split with each day focusing on two muscle groups and 3 exercises per group. Each day and ideally muscle group should include a major/power-lift (e.g. bench press, squat, dead-lift, overhead press, curl). Based on how new to lifting you are and if you are not training with a more experienced partner I would recommend the use of machines versus free weights.
Not sure how beginner you are, but I think focusing on the development of a program should be secondary to learning proper techniques and form. I highly recommend training with an experience partner to learn proper form. For beginners I also feel that developing a plan that you enjoy and promotes the behavior of actually going to the gym to be best. I would not get to hung up on having a strict program and just focus getting comfortable lifting. Some of the most experienced lifters don't actually follow strict plans. They use techniques that align with their goals and lift based on how their bodies feel.
