Maybe one of the handbrake cables has snapped. Get underneath mate and see if you can pull the inner cable out from either side of the rear calipers , just pull on the end of the metal cable ends. To repair this mate you will have to get underneath , cant be done from inside :)

I think you need to invest in a decent trolley jack, not the wobbly turd supplied with the car...
