See the Judiciary Act of 1789. Not only did it establish the three tiered structure of the federal court system, but established the supreme court as well. It left the details of lower courts to Congress.

The United States Federal court system is established by the Constitution. The Constitution only creates the Supreme Court. All other courts are created by Congress as they see necessary. The Judiciary Act of 1789 created the first expansion and organization of the Federal Court system.
