You don't. Pseudoelemnts do not exist in markup, so you can't assign inline 
styles to them.

Questionable, since you don't set background, you use pure red as content 
color, and you set font size using a keyword, which can mean just about 
anything. But this wasn't what you really meant, is it?

Well, you can, but not using a pseudoelement and inline CSS. Why would you 
be restricted to inline CSS? But if you are, then you just need to modify 
the markup by introducing a real element:

<p>
<span style="...">Y</span>ou can use the :first-letter pseudo-element to add 
a special effect
to the first character of a text! </p>
