If you got it from Prusa then there should be PLA sample already.

Try PLA or PETG.

See my GitHub and printables.com for some 3d stuff that you may like.

PLA is the best filament to start with and it is enough for everything that doesn't have to be extremely strong. If you want to print something that has to withstand stress I would recommend PETG. I wouldn't print with ASA/ABS, TPU, PC or something else in the first month or even in the first months because they need good printing settings and it can be frustrating if many prints fail because of the wrong settings. Actually I never really had a case were PETG wouldn't have been strong enough.

I hope that I could help you.
