Hi Avinash,

I am thinking that your requirement is when record is create then it check any custom field value and if this field is not null then another 
custom field of checkbox type should set to true and for this i write code considering account object to perform task.
  
trigger createAccountRecord on Account (before insert) {
    
    if(trigger.isInsert && trigger.isbefore){
        accountHelperClass.accCheckBox(trigger.new);
    }

}

public class accountHelperClass {
    public static void accCheckBox(list<Account> accList){
        try{
        for(account accObj:accList){
            if(accObj.Total_Rating__c == null){
                accObj.CustomCheckBox__c = true;
            }
        }
       
        }catch(exception e){
            system.debug('get error message ==>'+e.getMessage()+' in line number ==> '+e.getLineNumber());
        }
    }

Hii Avinash
Try Below Trigger 
trigger AccountTrigger on Account (before insert,before update){
    if(trigger.isBefore){
        if(trigger.isInsert){
           for(Account Acc :trigger.new){
              if(Acc.CustomField__c != null){
                  acc.Custom_CheckBox__c = true;
               }
            }
        } else if(trigger.isupdate){
           for(Account Acc :trigger.new){
              if(Acc.CustomField__c != null && Acc.CustomField__c  != trigger.oldMap.get(Acc.Id).CustomField__c){
                      acc.Custom_CheckBox__c = true;
                }

        }
    }
}
