I would probably go with a no call but this is why experience is so vital in officiating. You can read the rule book a hundred times and it all sounds fine until you have a play that makes you question your call. That's when you go back and re-read the rule and discuss it in depth with others and you really, really learn the rule.
The next time you have a running into/roughing the kicker call again, you'll have a clearer idea of the rule an be much better equiped to call it correctly.
