When your frigate explodes, you won't be so readily dissuaded from PvP, as they're easy to replace. The Uni runs a t1 frigate ship replacement program, which means that if you insure your ship, you'll not only receive a new one from the Uni hangar, but also a good chunk of ISK you can spend replacing your modules.

T2 frigates are also excellent for solo pvp. Though the hulls are quite a bit more expensive, assault ships and combat interceptors do remarkably well in solo and small gang PvP. The combat interceptor has the benefit of a 9au warpspeed, which allows for quick movement across and throughout systems. There are times where you'll give chase, and arrive at your targets destination before they do. Which is EPIC.

If you're looking to get the most bang for your buck, arguably the best choice for a solo PvP ship is a t1 destroyer. These ships are specialised frigate killers, and even with relatively low skills they're capable of taking on any t1 or faction frigate (as well as many t2 frigates) with a good chance of coming out ahead. You might need to be slightly more careful when fighting larger ships with your destroyer, since their slightly lower speed and larger signature radius makes it harder to evade cruiser-sized guns than it would be in a frigate.
