Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Rocks and other organic surfaces?

I would like to add random displacement to the surface of a polygon(like the noise modifier in 3dmax) and create rough surfaces like rocks,etc. I don't mean displacement maps, i want a way to model uneven organic surfaces, i am new to maya and i don't know how to do that.

You can use the sculpt poly tool and do it more or less manually. You can also select the vertices and use transform component with a value in the random field.
