The above two links create a child record from flows you can try checking these implementations and modify them to fit your use case.

Let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future.  

Thanks.

Hello

Can we create this by apex code only..... not using trigger,proess builder or anything else

If you want to create a contact automatically when after the account is created.
This is called an automated process.
In salesforce, for implementing the automation, we have to use Trigger, Process builder, Workflow, Flows, Schedulable, etc.
Without these, we can not automate using apex code.

So I use trigger here.

Thanks and Regards
