I don't deal with kernel stuff, but I'd imagine C/C++ will be your best options there, however, it's far from being limited to those.

Any language could be used to make your own kernel. However, if you rather read the source code of an existing one, I suggest C++ as you can get full source of Linux and it is written in C (it's been a long while since I looked so there might be C++ these days.)

C, or a small subset of C++. You have to be careful if you use C++, some features of the language or parts of the standard library will not work or will require extra setting up.
