You could say : Among all those girls over here, this girl is a beautiful one.
She is a beautiful girl.
The word a is an indefinite article. It is difficult to explain definite articles (the) and indefinite articles (a, an) in the English language but they are generally required with all nouns. So She is a beautiful girl has to have the article because of the noun girl. This girl is beautiful does not have a noun with beautiful so does not require an article.
