"KEIN" is a negative article, which u use only with nouns -
Ich bin ein Student (I am a student)
Ich bin kein Student (I am not a student)
"NICHT" is a more global negation, which, actually, can deny anything (verbs, adjectives, ...) -
Ich mag dich nicht (I don´t like you).
Das Kleid ist nicht schön (The dress is not beautiful)

kein = nicht ein
That sums it up really.
