Perhaps this puts you on the right track:

  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27869909/what-to-do-if-i-cannot-find-my-emacs-init-file

Generally it's not a problem when the init file doesn't exist
(yet). You just create it (and Emacs command "find-file" will
do that for you, conveniently).

The Emacs variable "user-init-file" contains the name of that
init file (which might vary depending on the operating system,
so it makes sense to look into that).

Of course, you can create it with any other editor (plain
text!), but if you are going to use Emacs, perhaps it's a good
plan to try that first...

And yes, you are right here -- welcome :-)

Just come back if you don't understand something in the above
link.

Cheers
