It isn't possible to delete Safari from your iPhone. If you can't find it on your home screen, you can try to find it in the App Library. Swipe the right past your last page of apps on your phone to access the App Library. From there, long press on the app icon and tap "Add to Home Screen."

You also might have Safari disabled in Content Restrictions. In Settings, go to Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Allowed Apps, and make sure that Safari is turned on. If it's turned off, it won't appear on your home screen.
