To understand table creation process, digging into code base would help.
You can start with this method in HBaseAdmin:
public void createTable(HTableDescriptor desc)
And this method in the HMaster:
public void createTable(HTableDescriptor hTableDescriptor,
byte [][] splitKeys)
which would lead
to
hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/master/handler/CreateTableHandler.java
