squeaking and stalling

Today when i was driving to school I noticed a squeaking noise from my truck. I'm not exactly sure where it was comming from but it sounded like it was towards the front. It had rained earlier today so i thought that maybe water had gotten somewhere and was causing the noise. After school got out I drove to a few more places and the squeaking noise continued. When i got home i tried to do some troubleshooting. I put it into park and gave it a little bit of gas then let up. Then as the rpms were dropping back down it started to run a little rough. They dropped below the normal idle speed and then the engine stalled. I am thinking that the noise might be the belt slipping but i'm really not sure.

Also, i just had to replace the radiator on the truck. It had started to leak but was never run when it was low on coolant.

Thanks
