x10 basics--noob question

ok, i have a pull cord light above my kitchen sink that I need to replace with a regular light fixture that needs to be controlled by a switch. the problem is that I can't get into the wall to access the wiring to make the switch work properly. somewhere along the way, someone told me that I could overcome this problem by using an x10 switch module to control the new light fixture.

so my question is: will x10 work for me in this application? if so, what components will I need and how do they install? i have found this product

but don't know if it is what I need. is there something that will need to go on the light itself? i'm confused and haven't really found any good websites that address my specific questions.

thanks in advance,
