Is it possible to break your own bag of waters at home to start labor?

NO, absolutely not. The bag of waters is there to protect the baby from infection and to even out the pressure round the baby when the contractions start. Breaking the waters does not always mean you go into labor and if it is done in the maternity ubit you can be given drugs to staret the contractions. If your waters have been broken for too long before the baby is born you are both at risk of infection and may have to be given antibiotics as a prevcautuin.

How do you know if your bag of water has broken if it's your first child?

You don't always. I am a midwife and I thought my waters had gone but they had not. If the baby's head is well into the pelvis they may not go at all until the baby is born. However if you have an uncontrollable dampness (smells different to urine) your waters have probably gone.
