I can confirm that you need to take a train up the hill.. Besides Zermatt is very expensive to stay! You however could also do a nice hike up to Zermatt (just follow the trails).
If you're looking for dramatic views on the Matterhorn, a lot of places in the vicinity will do just fine. I would recommend VerBier. IMO the roads up to Verbeir or Grimentz are alot more exciting than the one going to Zermatt.
And please note you are not visiting Austria but Switzerland! So you will have to buy a sticker costing 40 euros to be able to use highways (easy to get at the border). Bear in mind, these guys are Swiss, they seem to know when you didnt buy one!
Prague is nice, but perhaps try to stay only 2 days in the city centre (cheap place for  s, accommodation) and explore the surroundings.
People in Europe all tend to speak English, although the French sometimes do not feel to eager.. The countries you visit and the places youre going to, will be no problem.
Looking at your list of places, perhaps taking other means of transport would be more appropriate (think city parking, taking your gear everywhere).
Have a look at interrail
