It normally depends on where you live, but in most states you can get yours around the age of 16. You can start as soon as 15, but need to be within a certain amount of months before you turn 16.
You can get provisional license when you are going to learn the driving. In other case when the issuing authority is not satisfied with your driving then a provisional license is issued for a short period.
I believe it varies from state to state but in most states I think if you're under the age of 18 and at least 15 1/2 you can apply for your provisional license.
