I am 19 years old and I've been working out for a bit now and am a bit muscular, not too much though. But, I like to drink a shake that has 1 scoop of creatine and 3 scoop whey protein mixed in at once within 30 minutes of my workout. Is this the best time to drink it? Should I take something else if I want to get bigger much faster?

I'd suggest taking creatine immediatly after you're workout. That's what i do and it's worked pretty well

in order to get bigger you need to be eating in a calorie surplus. and you need to be constantly stimulating muscle growth through lifting weights.
READ ALL THE STICKIES
this link should get you started with all the basics- http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=150051643
as to your question it doesent matter when you have your protein shakes (not even needed provided you are getting adequate protein from your diet) or creatine.
but in saying that post workout is a good time for a shake because you can carry it in your bag and have it as soon as you finish from the gym so it makes it more convenient but all that matters overall is that you are hitting your daily calories/macros - meal timing is irrelevant.
and with creatine it also doesnet matter what time of the day you have it just as long as you are consuming the recommended 5g dosage consistently every day.Bodybuilding Log - http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=151283943

After you finish your workout you should drink your shake as soon as you possibly can it is recommended you take it at least within 30 minutes of your workout.

Comeon guys meal timing is irrelevant, just eat enough and train hard and you'll be alright.
