Well, you could always use the MTV raytracer :-)

Actually, I am going to plug another person's raytracer, since mine is
getting too large and complicated for novices to understand.
George Kyriazis wrote a good, clean and simple raytracer and posted the
source to it here awhile ago.  A more recent version with additions for
distributed raytracing is available for anonymous ftp from 
drizzle.cs.uoregon.edu.  Both this version and older versions (which may
be better if you are just learning) are available by anonymous ftp
from life.pawl.rpi.edu.

Hope this helps.
