The whereis command searches only the standard binary directories.  
Instead try the which command. Here's how things looks on my machine,  
where I have left Apple's Ruby install untouched and installed a  
newer Ruby via MacPorts:

$ which ruby
/opt/local/bin/ruby
$

The MacPorts one is found because the binary directories from  
MacPorts appear first on my path:

$ echo $PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/ 
sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
$

Maybe you just need to modify your PATH environment variable so that / 
usr/local/bin (and perhaps /usr/local/sbin) appear before /usr/bin.  
Let us know if that helps.
