The normal process is: When you draw the schematic in eeschema you test and annotate the circuit, and once all the corrections are done you save the netlist. You then run cvtpcb which allows you to assign modules to the various devices. When done you save the netlist again.
In PCB new you create your board outline, and then open the netlist, this will dump all the modules on top of each other in one corner. (There are a few operations you can do that will spread out the modules allowing you to select them easier) It is possible to add modules directly to the PCB, just click on the add modules icon and select the one you want. If you do this, things like DRC will start to complain, as it will not have any netlist to test against, so you may have to switch off drc. Generally it's best to create a schematic for each project as it makes life a bit easier. Do read and work through the tutorial a few times, it is a bit out of date, so some things look a bit different but the process is still valid. Kicad is not hard to use, but like many large software products, it does need a bit of practice. You will also find extensive help documents for each kicad program, access these from the help menu, or if you prefer they are in the docs directory as simple pfd files. (as is the tutorial) Hope this helps.
