How lovely of you to take in this little kitten, but he sounds very ill at the moment. It's very concerning that he's not eating and he's been throwing up. I think he needs a vet visit right away, he can easily become dehydrated from this vomiting. He needs medication to stop the vomiting, probably IV fluids for hydration, and any other treatment the vet deems necessarily . Please take him into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
