Hiya there!
As you've likely heard, FFXIV doesn't have any official RP servers sanctioned by Square Enix. It's all "community" driven.
Depending on what times you're active, there are a couple RP-friendly servers people mostly group up on.
Balmung (NA / Aether datacenter): The oldest and the biggest. Carried over from 1.0's Besaid server. Locked for dangerously high player population.
Mateus (NA / Aether datacenter): The second biggest RP-friendly server. Still growing. Had some RPers before Balmung was basically perma-closed, but stepped up more after and has a more self-sustaining RP population than before.
Omega (EU / Chaos datacenter): Was mostly decided upon by RPers across multiple sites to be an unofficial EU RP server. Smaller population, but larger and more coordinated than single-group pickings elsewhere.
On the RPC, we have a Linkshell Hall and a Free Company Hall with known [mostly] active groups that are RP-focused in some way, whether in-character or out-of-character. For larger servers (and the formerly large server, Gilgamesh) there are filters to better find groups. If there's not a dedicated button, it gets filtered into the "Other" category. ...should another server grow big enough, they'll also get a button though.
