  If a Digimon that's affected by this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect would be trashed because it has no DP, is it still prevented from leaving the battle area?

  No, the card is trashed.
  Digimon without DP can't be in the battle area according to the rules, therefore upon the rule check timing, the card is considered a card that doesn't belong in the battle area and is trashed.
  This is why that card is trashed even if that Digimon is affected by this card's [Start of Your Main Phase] effect.
