You can repair the rim if it's not too badly bent. Get an adjustable spanner and put it over the bent part and bent it carefully back. You'll still feel a bit of a bump when you put the brakes on because the rim will always be a bit deformed. Good luck.
If you do get a rim, make sure the ERD is the same otherwise you'll need different spoke lengths. For ERD, go to www.sheldonbrown.com.
Cheers.
