Could be a number of different things. When it does start can you keep it running if you keep your foot on the gas pedal a little? If so possibly faulty/dirty idle air control valve or dirty throttle plate.

yes if I keep my foot on the gas a little bit just a tad it'll stay running and I have heavy fumes smell coming out tailpipe

it runs okay it runs okay until you get to a stop light or stop sign then it will stall and be hard to start again then when it does start again it drives fine until you come to a stop only sometimes

Sounds like faulty/dirty idle air control valve or dirty throttle plate is your issue.
