It is easy to run PHP/MySQl on a Mac - much easier than on a PC in my opinion.
OSX comes with Apache web server pre-installed. So first go to System Prefs > Sharing and turn 'Personal Web Sharing' on.
Your sites root folder will then be viewable at http://127.0.0.1/
You can download and install PHP 5 from here:

And inmstructions on downloading/configuring MySQL are here:

You could then use PHPMyAdmin or something similar to administer your databases.
Hope this helps...?
