Moloch is the Luciferesque god mentioned in the introduction text as having stolen the Amulet of Yendor. He is, in this sense, the bad guy in the NetHack story.

Altars to Moloch can be found throughout the game, but they are marked as unaligned, and Moloch has nothing encouraging to say to you.

Moloch makes his home in Gehennom, so any prayers there go to him instead of to your own god. This is a Bad Thing(tm), since your god doesn't like people who like Moloch, and Moloch just plain doesn't like anyone. Lightning and wide-angle disintegration beams ahoy.
