Welcome aboard, btw.
Agnostic is a class of unbeliever. I don't believe that there is a God. But I don't affirmatively disbelieve that there is God.
The bolded sentence is the definition of an atheist.
But hey, nobody can force you to call yourself anything; you can use whatever label you feel comfortable with. It's just that when you're talking about the concepts and ideas behind the words it's important to be clear. From the words that you've used, I would call you an agnostic atheist (like most people here). That means you don't accept the claim "A god exists" but you also DONT make the claim "A god does not exist."
