Check when airfares are cheapest; it varies throughout the year.
Check for availability of couch surfing opportunities or make use of youth hostels.
Buy a cheap bicycle and see a smaller area, but in more depth; saves on train fares.
Forego buying a lot of junk to take back home when you leave.
Several ways there to cut down expenses.

You are asking quite broad questions here.
Sounds like you need to start with a travel agent to describe some options.
Then buy a guide book to see where and when you would like to go, and what you want to see and do.
The "best" way to holiday here will depend on the individual.
How long do you want to travel? What time of year?
Why are you interested in Japan?
You are only 19, so you probably won't have a lot of money. That suggests you are going to think of hostels for accommodation. Depending on where you end up going, you may/may not want to buy a JR Rail Pass (if you can afford it).

The options are endless!
For a first trip to Japan people usually do Tokyo (with a few day trips to e.g. Nikko, Kamakura or Hakone) and Kyoto (and surroundings), sometimes also Hiroshima.
That's very easy to do as there are many tours - and even if you want to go alone there are MANY guides (book form or online) in English that provide a lot of information on these destinations.
For a first trip to Japan I think that's enough.
But I agree with the other commenters, you should knock down what you really want to see or what interests you the most!
