I searched for it on many files and watched, followed instructions from many videos. But, still I cannot find my SID. I have searched for it on "Services.msc", there I can't even find oracle service. When I exctracted the zip file, I found that there are only 2688 files in it. Did I missed any files?
Please help Me.

You supply the SID when you create the database. So what did you set it to?

This suggests to me you haven't installed the software and/or created a database. See these videos from Connor for details on how to do this:
