I don't think personal websites/portfolios are necessary, but they can be useful. I use my personal website as a playground to learn new skills and improve my lack of design skills. With that said, if you don't have a lot of work experience, but you have a bunch of school projects and/or personal projects, it could be a good thing when looking for a job.
I think the most important things to include in a portfolio is definitely your completed projects, personality and skills.
To create the website, you could code it from scratch, you could use a service like stackbit They have different themes that connect to different CMS and deploys to Netlify. If you really don't want to code it at all you could use Squarespace or Webflow.
