You will need to reset your passcode. You will need a computer to complete this task. You can reset your passcode by following the instructions in this article by Apple ➔ How to reset your passcode on a disabled iPhone. All your data on your iPhone will be wiped clean in the process.

Once the above task has been completed then you can get your serial number. If you have the original boxes that the iPhone came in then the serial number should be noted on there. If you have receipt when you purchased the iPhone then the receipt should have the serial number as well.
