Hi Patryk,
Forst you need to work on getting the right contact on the ball. A brushing contact will get you to generate spin. To be able to get the brushing contact think about just touching the outside of the ball. Like there is an ant on the ball that you are trying to brush off without hitting the ball.
Take a look at our lessons on Serving Secrets. This will guide you in the right direction.

The Kicker Serve
The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
