We demonstrate a novel way to efficiently and very robust create an entanglement between an atomic and a photonic qubit. A single laser beam is used to excite one atomic ensemble and two different spatial modes of scattered Raman fields are collected to generate the atom-photon entanglement. With the help of build-in quantum memory, the entanglement still exists after 20.5 $\mu$s storage time which is further proved by the violation of CHSH type Bell's inequality. Our entanglement procedure is the building block for a novel robust quantum repeater architecture [Zhao et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 240502 (2007)]. Our approach can be easily extended to generate high dimensional atom-photon entanglements.
