Default my car overheated, plz help

Okay, earlier today, I went on a lil road trip to the fireworks store, which was about 30 miles away on the freeway. After I got off the freeway a few miles from my home on the way back, I noticed that the engine thermostat was almost in the red zone. I pulled over and popped the hood, and the damn radiator hose bursted open and coolant was splattered all over the inside of my engine bay. I duck taped the radiator hose and poured water into the radiator. It cooled down for hour or so, so I decided to just drive it back home. I tried to start the engine up, and it wouldn't start. It cranks good but it just wont fire. I tried starter fluid but that did nothing. Anybody have any tips or suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated .
