You're on the right road. The only thing missing is the first step - creating an instance. This is specific to NT only AFAIK. Run the program ORADIMxx.EXE (where xx is your Oracle version number) to create the instance. You can run it with /? as parameter to get a list of parameters. I think it's something like this:
ORADIMxx - NEW -SID orcl -INTPWD sa
to define the instance and the internal password.

Once you have the instance defined, you can set your ORACLE_SID and run sqldba with your scripts to create the database.
