Welcome to Balmung and RP-R-Us
I would start by just following the MSQ (main story quest) and your Class quest lines. From this you will get a feel for the setting, and get the things that help progress in game (like your mount). Don't worry so much about side quests as you will also be leveling other classes on this character and you can pick them up with those.
Also note that
At about level 15 you should head to Vesper Bay in Western Thanalan with some orange juice and unlock the ability to dye your gear.
As for finding RP:

Also note that
- Free Company (FC) = Guild
- Link Shell (LS) = Chat Channel (you can have up to 8 LS)

As for finding RP:
- Have at least a rough outline of your character and check on the web sources the basics of lore, and I would keep it simple to start with and base it on something basic rather than a specific class
- Keep your eyes open as you can find it anyplace, especialy those with an RP status set or even any FC name that ends in "-RP>>". Check the character's search info for more clues as many will say "Walk-ups welcome".
- Join some of the many IC/OOC link shells to tap into the community, many of these also have a Discord channel too for more spammy stuff
- Check out the FCs to find one that would suit, this is a great way to get into RP
- Do go to events
