It appears that you have lost your iPhone and Find My has not been enabled. You are not going to be able to find your iPhone digitally since Find My has not been enabled. You will therefore have to look for it physically, if possible.

The Serial Number, EID and IMEI of your iPhone will not help in the search of your iPhone, however, it will help in identifying it should you find it or someone else finds it.
