A method for forming a SiC film on a target substrate by ALD, comprises: activating a surface of the target substrate by activation gas plasma which is plasmatized an activation gas; and forming a SiC film by supplying a source gas containing a precursor represented by a chemical formula RSiX13 or RSiHClX2 onto the target substrate whose the surface is activated by activating the surface of the target substrate, where, R is an organic group having an unsaturated bond, X1 is selected from a group consisting of H, F, Cl, Br and I, and X2 is one selected from a group consisting of Cl, Br and I.
