Dear Rebeca,
If you want to use a nonbonded model, you can use the parameter file just as Marcelo said (the file name may change due to different version of AmberTools, you can check the "Ions” section” in "Molecular mechanics force fields” chapter of the AMBER manual you are using for details).
If you want to use a bonded model, MCPB.py could offer help. I suggest you to download the AmberTools16 (which is free: http://ambermd.org/AmberTools16-get.html <http://ambermd.org/AmberTools16-get.html>) which has a newest version of MCPB.py in it.
BTW, an metal ion modeling tutorial about AMBER could be found here: http://ambermd.org/tutorials/advanced/tutorial20/ <http://ambermd.org/tutorials/advanced/tutorial20/>.
Kind regards,
Pengfei
