Create a new database in Oracle Developer
I downloaded and installed Oracle SQL Developer on my computer. I connected to my company's database. However, as I'm still learning SQL queries - I would like to test out the queries that I wrote on a mock database.
My question is how do I create a database?
I searched through the internet and tried the following.
On the New/Select Database Connection Menubox I typed in the following:
Connection Name: HR_ORCL
Username: HR
Password: HR
Connection Type: Basic
Role: default
Hostname: localhost
Port: 1521
SID: ORCL
I then clicked on test and got the following error message: "Status: Failure-Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection".
How do I create a mock database?
Thank you!

Oracle SQL Developer is a client tool, it does not contain the database server component. You need to install and configure the server on your computer first. If this is on a company machine you will run into licensing issues (because that's Oracle's business model) so I recommend using an alternative DBMS like PostgreSQL or SQL Server Express unless you really need to learn PL/SQL instead of other dialects.

Oracle's flagship database product is a "client/server" system where databases run inside a server process that often runs on a dedicated database server computer, all other client software (including business web-applications, web-services, desktop software and development tools like Oracle SQL Developer) are separately run and do not require the database server be running locally.
To create a database that runs on your computer you need to install the Oracle database server on your computer. Given Oracle's business model of turning software licensing audits into a very profitable business model you likely won't get approval from your company's IT people to install Oracle server on your local machine: they'll either set you up with your own private database instance in an existing server for you to play with or instruct you to install a different (and free) database server not covered by Oracle's licensing schemes - these different products use a different dialect of SQL (e.g. MS SQL Server uses T-SQL, Oracle uses PL/SQL, etc) and different DBA and development tools (e.g. SSMS+SSDT instead of Oracle SQL Developer).

There's multiple options to getting a free Oracle database.
XE 18 was recently released here:
https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-technologies/express-edition/downloads/index.html
There's a developer day vm that has labs inside it along with a database here:
https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/databaseappdev-vm-161299.html
There's the docker option outline by Tim Hall here:
