If that sound is loud enough to be heard some distance from the vehicle, it is likely the starter solenoid that is engaging, but there's a break in the circuit for the starter motor. Most commonly that is caused by worn solenoid contacts in the starter motor, but the same symptom can be caused by a battery cable with a bad connection. Do you have a test light and know how to use it?
