Hi,
If you install as a default instance, the server name will be the same as the host name. If you installed as a named instance, you can find the instance name from SQL server configuration manager.

hope this helps.

Can you check if your SQL server service is running? If so, you should be able to start SSMS locally and connect to it.

If you are trying to connect from a remote PC, make sure you open the firewall port (1433) if everything is default.

You can find it by using SQL Server configuration Manager. In SSCM, click on SQL Server Services, in which you will see the field Service Type where the service type is defined as SQL Server.
