<p>I am sure to become a scrum master could really add value to the process I am following, however I believe that the background of the area of the application I am working on help more to get better planning and scheduling done for the project</p>

Becoming a CSM doesn't really qualify you for running a Scrum project either.  Practice is the only preparation you can ever hope for.
The CSM class/cert
is
valuable still, though.  At the very least, if you don't have a mentor/coach to lean on, you should read..
Agile Project Management with Scrum (Schwaber)
Agile Estimation and Planning (Cohn)
User Stories Applied (Cohn)
and take the CSM course.  You'll be moderately prepared to run a Scrum project.
The biggest thing you can take away from this is:  you'll make mistakes if you're new to this.  If you can learn some pitfalls and see what to avoid, then you can avoid the cost of making/learning from these mistakes.
