Question: did you create an instance and start it? If not, it is not surprising it doesn't work.
Also, in a default config *you won't be able to create a database from a remote system*, and I wouldn't recommend you to configure Oracle in such a way it is possible.
In Oracle, 'create database' is definitely not the same as in sqlserver. For one thing, sqlserver guys never read any manual, in Oracle you *must*
