If my first GMAT score is very low,
do you think if it's possible for me to open a new account and take it again (so that my poor first score will not appear in the grading report)

Do you think it's feasible?
Will I penalized if I do so?
Did anyone of you do that and get caught???

it will be VERY helpful if you can answer my question.

I'm not sure that's possible - I'm sure GMAC has thought of this before and put security measures in place to avoid it. Besides, taking the test again and doing better can be viewed as a positive thing - i.e. you worked hard, didn't give up, and succeeded in overcoming your weakness. Plus it avoids all the ethical questions of doing what you have mentioned.

The GMAC is pretty careful about such things. You'd probably have to change your name and ID, and maybe get a face and fingerprint transplant!

As mentioned above, this seems like a pretty bad idea. You'd almost certainly be thrown out of school if you were caught. It sounds like you haven't even taken the GMAT yet, so I'll tell you what I tell my students who start talking about contingency plans before they even take the test: spend your time studying rather than worrying!
