If by sample database do you mean the complete Oracle product? If you do you are talking about 3GB of product and when installed it will create a sample database with schemas. You can get it at no charge at http://www.oracle.com

If you already have an Oracle installation you are misusing the word database and mean schema in which case one already exists. Ask your DBA for a user-id and password.

PS: The word database in Oracle relates to an entirely different concept than the same word used on the context of MS SQL Server.
