Every backup site is different.
SO, you need to comeup with your own backup script.
Honestly,
backing up the database with RMAN is the easiest thing to do
( whether you use catalog or not).
But recovering the backup ( older backups), maintaining and reliablity is more important.
RMAN can provide it, no doubts about it. But only if you can understand it.

Please start with RMAN documentation.

TO backup, all you need to do is

RMAN> backup database plus archivelog;

>> including control files
control files are automatically backep and you can also set CONTROL FILE AUTOBACKUP.
