How to I obtain that?

If you are just getting started, blockchain.info and electrum are pretty simple to use for new users.

Altough the learning curve is a lot less steap for an online wallet (blockchain.info), i'd personally never suggest this for anybody. When using an online wallet, you're not the only one that might have controll over your private keys, so you might not be the only one in controll of your funds.
Personally, i'd also suggest electrum or multibit HD. They're both SPV HD wallets, meaning that they don't need to sync the full blockchain (so they don't need to run for a couple of days before you can start using them, and they don't take up 100 Gb of diskspace), plus you only need to remember a seed phrase in order to be able to restore your wallet if your PC ever crashes.

In my opinion, multibit HD is the most newbie-friendly wallet around, but it lacks some coin controll features you might need once you're confortable with the way bitcoin works. Electrum has most features i use on a daily basis, and it's still pretty newbie-friendly.

In the end, there is no harm in testing out several wallets, just make sure that once you pick the wallet that's right for you, make sure you make decent backups.

If using blockchain.info you should be the only one with the private keys if set up correctly, blockchain should have no access to them at all.

They are not the same as other online wallets like Coinbase that don't give you access to your private keys at all.
Blockchain.info stores an encrypted version of your wallet online but decryption happens in your browser so the wallet is only as safe as your computer.

I would recommend Mycelium for anyone new to bitcoin and maybe then move on to something like electrum when a little more experienced.
