The Constitution didn't actually create any courts, but required Congress to establish the US Supreme Court, per Article III, Section I. Although this is the only court explicitly mentioned in the Constitution, the Framers also authorized Congress to establish other, inferior courts.
Congress established the US Supreme Court in the Judiciary Act of 1789.
Article III:
"Section 1. The judicial power of the United States, shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behaviour, and shall, at stated times, receive for their services, a compensation, which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office."
The Constitution created the Supreme Court.

In order for the Court to consider granting certiorari in any case, it has to involve an important question of federal or constitutional law.
