Hey there, and welcome to the community. Always nice to see someone new taking an interest in this.
So let's get right to it!
Really, any race and gender of that race can be just about any class as long as you write it in a way that is believable. You can have a Hellsguard Roegadyn conjurer from the shroud, you can have a Hyur Highlander rogue, and yes, you can have a Keeper Arcanist!
The key here is plausibility. Eorzea is a very diverse place--with some regions being more tolerant than others--and Limsa Lominsa is noted to be something of a cultural melting pot. Because Limsa Lominsa tends to be open-minded as far as race relations go, provided you're not a kobold or sahagin, it's completely possible to have a Keeper who is from or has visited Limsa Lominsa long enough to learn arcanima. A Keeper in Limsa would certainly be unusual or exotic, but not impossible or unbelievable.
This is a wonderfully healthy attitude to have from a literary standpoint. I have high hopes for you!
Feel free to ask any questions about anything else you're unsure about.

Â I actually created a her class as arcanist, which was a part of the back story I created for her. I am thinking the obvious class would have been archer since as a keeper of the moon she would have come from the Black Shroud. Â Does arcanist fit though?
