Being a guy who recently started reloading too I would highly recommend starting with a jacketed bullet to begin with. IMO they are much easier to deal with and there's a lot more data available. Stick with starting loads up to mid range loads for now until you are confident in your process and accuracy. Take your time with this. I found 9mm to be a finicky round due to it being a tapered cartridge but if you can get your neck tension right it's not too bad.
Get yourself a few good manuals. My go to is the Hornady but I also use the Lyman and Hodgdon plus I look up load data on the manufacturers website. Just take your time and don't be afraid to ask questions.
