I don't know the make and model phone you have but with most modern phones you can NOT buy a replacement except from the manufacturer. New phones use custom made batteries that are just for that one model of phone. Apple can replace a battery if you bring the phone into the store.
In the old days there were "battery compartments" that opened up and you could drop out a battery. Not any more. Here is a write up on how to replace the battery of an iPhone 6 https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPhone+6+Battery+Replacement/29363 Better maybe to let some one else do this for you. Mishandling this battery, by maybe using the wrong tool to pry it loose can cause it to catch fire. I've actually lost a few LiPo batteries this way, it is very easy to do.
