Could be anything: Low back pain in a 19 year old should be evaluated. It could simply be muscle strain, but could also indicate more serious problem. Popping probably doesn't mean much. If pain is worse in morning associated with stiffness lasting > 30 minutes, then inflammatory disorder is possible. If it is worse with activity it could be more mechanical. If pain wakes you up at night, seek help soon.

Time to see Doctor: There are many possible causes of you pain. It can be primarily from the spine either from a stress fracture in a vertebrae or a problem in a disc. Both will cause spasm and pain in the muscles of the back and hip. The popping can be related to this. The pain can also be cause from a true hip problem , including tight muscles and tendons surrounding the hip, or possible labral injury in the joint.
