You are making a wise decision.

If you have never invested before, I recommend you go to your neighborhood bank and open a Roth savings account and start building your contribution. When you have enough to get a CD, say $1,000, convert your savings to a CD, and keep going. Your retirement savings and CD accounts are insured against loss up to $250,000.
In the meantime, study about investing to see if you would like to do another type of investment such as mutual funds, stocks or bonds which are not insured against loss but which may give you a return for the risk involved. There are brokerage firms such as Fidelity and Vanguard that can set you up with a Roth and transfer your bank accounts to them when you are ready to do that. Their websites also have a lot of useful information in an understandable format.
It doesn't have to be with a bank. An IRA account is just an account - not a specific type of investment. First you need to decide what you want the IRA to be invested in: insured bank accounts? Mutual funds? Individual stocks, ETFs and bonds? Once you've decided that, THEN think about a suitable custodian - it could be a bank, mutual fund company or a brokerage.
any investment house like schwab is fine. if your personal bank gives any sort of incentive or bonus and you don't have an outside broker already, that is fine too. a personal bank may limit what you can do with the roth in terms of investment options, where an established investment house may not. ie allow you to purchase/sell specific stock rather than a choice of 3 or 4 broad mutuals.
there are plenty of places to open Roth's
they are retirement accounts which have no tax advantage when you contribute and none when you take distribution
there is a holding period of 5 yrs on them
you can after time, change them to regular IRA's which have a tax advantage at contribution and are taxable when distributed, they are limited to distribution to age 59 1/2 with penalties
