If you want to change your password only:
Code:
ALTER USER  [I]user[/I]
IDENTIFIED  [I]password[/I];
user is the name of the existing user and password is the new password which is to be specified.
For Ex.
ALTER USER scott
IDENTIFIED BY cat;
User Altered

If you want to create a new user with a new password, then:
Code:
CREATE USER [I]user [/I]
IDENTIFIED BY [I]password[/I];
For using that user id You have to grant certain roles and privileges
