#dnd tip for players who want to DM: there's never been a better time! Players with no DM are looking to play. The number and variety of resources have never been this high. You don't have to be perfect; you just have to take the first step and decide you're going to try!

Start by using social media to find a location: game stores, conventions, schools, public venues like libraries, and online – games are happening everywhere. If you're already a player, you probably know where games are happening in your area.

I strongly suggest starting, if new players are involved, with pre-generated characters and a short adventure. This lets you introduce things gradually, plus you get to see what aspects of the game your players enjoy most. Then if you want to start a full campaign, you can later.
