What is a good substitute for sake in cooking?

I am 16 and have been experimenting with Japanese food. I clearly cannot buy sake to cook with, so I was wondering what the best non-alcoholic substitute for sake would be. Obviously I'm not going to be trying anything too dependent on it, just for simple recipes. I have both mirin and rice vinegar but I remain unsure which would be a better substitute, if either.

rice vinegar and sugar (mixed) should substitute well enough, but sake is always of better use.

Agree with John R...Actually non alcoholic substitude is tough, the closest i think would be a non alcoholic dry white wine.
