You don't own roadkill.org, but someone else does. If you want to
have a roadkill.org email address you'll have to talk to the owner of
roadkill.org. I have no idea whether roadkill.org will be amenable to
giving you an account (or for what you seem to want, a forwarding
alias).
The short answer is that you can't just have any email address you'd like.
