you didn't creae a db.
If this is your first experience with oracle you should not do a software installation only. Specify a general purpose database where you can and install again. You might want to give AL32UTF8 and UTF8 as the database fonts later.
I also created my first two databases that way. Then I switched to creating the scripts only, fixing the scripts and creating a db from them and my last two db's were duplicates created with rman. I found this to be the fastest way.

Lots of Greetings!
