Welcome to OSM. Go to osm.org (www.openstreetmap.org) zoom into the area of the street you wish to add. Select edit. If you don't have an account, you will be prompted to signup. After you enter your id and password to login, select the background layer, from the layer icon on right side, then select OpenStreetMap GPS traces. Remember, consumer grade gps traces are often close, but not that close. The more traces, the easier it is to determine the actual center line.
Besides GPS traces there is also a TIGER layer, located just above the GPS traces item. It has road data from the US Census Bureau that may help. Make sure that you enter the full name of the road, i.e. no abbreviations. Since you haven't edited yet, I would suggest going through the tutorial. It is fast and give you a good start on editing maps.
