Reverse gear on steep hill

I tried parking on a steep hill and couldn't get the car to go into reverse. The gear was in reverse but the car wouldn't back up without making a loud clunking sound. I didn't force it and put it back into drive. I am able to back up on a flat level surface. Does anyone know if this is a problem with the car that I should have checked out, or is there a trick to backing up on a steep hill.
