Does anyone know if it's replaceable or ANYTHING? I don't want to junk this car over something so small

Of course it's replaceable:

However, unless the alternator belts are not turning, whatsoever, I would suggest that you might have additional problems. You can get the belts sufficiently tight to verify that the alternator is working properly.

The voltage should be about 13.5V or more at 1500 rpm or above.
