The Supreme Court only has original jurisdiction for a few very rare types of cases (which are outlined in the US Constitution) and discretionary jurisdiction for everything else, so they have no obligation to grant a writ of certiorari and hear your case.

You have to start with one of the lower federal courts, instead.
