Most likely, no. It depends on the cat's attitude toward her kittens and also the type of feline. If she doesn't exactly care for her newborn kittens, then yes - it's a possibility she will run away to save her own life; leaving them behind.

female cats are protective of their kittens but that doesn't mean they can be protective of other kittens whether their strays or not so yes a female cat will probably adopt a stray kitten if she knows that kitten cant take care of itself

Some cats will. If the cat is afraid of humans, and if her kittens smell like a human to her from being touched by one, she may very well not want to go near them. This wouldn't be the case all the time, however. The smell may not be strong enough to bother her, or she may ignore it and follow her maternal instincts regardless of it. This is likely if the stray cat is used to humans.

Where can I find stray kittens?

I am hoping that you are wondering because you want to adopt one to keep as a pet. If that is the case, I wouldn't go for a stray for several reasons, but disease is one of the big ones. You should probably look in your local newspaper for kittens. Most of the time they are free. But if a stray is really what you want, try the Arby's parking lot. That's usually where I see stray cats and kittens. Or sometimes they are in the parking lot of grocery stores.
