Depending on the type of schema, you have several
standards that you can use. If you want to represent
data, XML schema might be a good idea. and there is
RDF (RDF-S) which is a little bit more advanced than
XML Schemas. What type of relationships do you want
represent? Is it just inheritance? 
Check out this link:
http://www.daml.org/language/features.html
It is a feature comparision XMLSchemas, RDF-S and
DAML.
