"Ramp" needs to be changed to "Gradient Ramp" from CC 2016 on... they changed the name of the effect.

myComp = app.project.activeItem;
app.beginUndoGroup("Add Gradient Ramp")
mySolid = myComp.layers.addSolid([0,.8,.4], "BG", myComp.width, myComp.height,1);
mySolid.startTime = 0
myEffect = mySolid.property("Effects").addProperty("Gradient Ramp");
app.endUndoGroup();
