Re: ~/.vimrc
'locate vimrc'
You can copy /usr/share/vim/vim73/vimrc_example.vim to your $HOME or just write your own.

Re: ~/.vimrc
Generally, files like .vimrc (for that matter other files that start with ".") are generally user-specific preferences for a software. User specific files are located in the home directory, if not present you can create them. A LOT of programs support user-preferences this way.
So, /etc/vimrc is global file and .vimrc acts per user.. If its not there, you can always create it.
