Feel free to add me as a contact! Also, another channel you might want to join along with the suggested would be:
Learning Coalition
A lot of new players can join this channel to ask vets questions they may have about the game.
As for fits, it's always good to try and run something that synergies with the suit well. The laser rifle works well with the Amarr Assault or the Amarr Commando because of their bonuses toward laser weaponry. The Caldari Commando gives a bonus toward sniper rifles.
But that's the thing about Dust 514: you can customize however you wish. If you want to run a suit with nothing but Powergrid and CPU modules, have at it (though I think that would be a bit of a waste). Nothing but electronics on a Logistics? Go right ahead (a friend of mine did this to take advantage of the Logistics passive scan range). Shotguns for scouts only? How about on a Minmatar Assault (pretty powerful right now) or how about on a Gallente Commando for a damage bonus and an unexpected CQC surprise for anyone coming up close to you?
We can give you ideas and helpful hints to optimize and get the most out of your suit, but don't be afraid to experiment with some crazy ideas too. 
To echo what Mejt0 said: I would focus on working on your infantry skills first and foremost. Vehicles are expensive and when your ISK runs dry and you have no vehicle assets left, what then? Having those infantry skills will allow you to ground and pound for little to no cost, allowing you to build up your ISK to get your vehicles again. Not having those skills will only hurt in the long run.
To put your question about corps into simple terms: Think about them as Guilds or Clans. Corporations can be used for various reasons beyond that however, such as joining together to conquer the universe through Planetary Conquest - a special game mode that allows you to conquer other player's land and even defend your own conquered land. Alliances are simply a group of Corporations which allow you to operate on a higher level than just a corporation.
Hope that helps! Also, be sure to check out my signature which has a link to various guides and other helpful bits of information. Good luck out there. o7
