Its probably already on your system. Just run "locate ksh" to find it and its associated pieces. However - As a long time user and fan of Ksh I can tell you that you will find bash to be pretty much identical and since it is the Linux default (as much as Linux HAS a default), and you should give it a try. I don't believe that you will find anything that you use in ksh to be missing from bash. Give bash a try and if it doesn't do what you want, post your question here. You'll get all the info you need. Good luck.
