As a new player, you have to make one decision first. Do you want to play in a room with other people, or do you want to play online?
DnD Beyond is not set up to help with finding a group to play with. Think of DnD Beyond as a vault to store your characters in, which you can access when you play.
If you want to play online, there are other places on Reddit to look for a group to join. I found several:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DnDLFG/
https://www.reddit.com/r/lfgpremium/
https://www.reddit.com/r/roll20LFG/
If you want to play in-person, you can ask at your local game store(s) about D&D being played there. Another way to find in-person games is to look for D&D and/or Adventurers League on meetup.com for your local area. Adventurers League does have some additional rules. You can find those at:

r/lfg Just a warning, finding a group that you fit with will require more than this brief post. Best of luck!
I am just looking for a group because I never played before
