Well that isn't a 99 neon, assuming it's yours.

Does the engine still turn over?

Was there a alternator light on when this happened?

Check the connections to the battery terminals and starter. Make sure they are clean and tight.

Check ALL the connections to the starter. Also check the relays and fuses.
