Hi, Alex,
Your Apple ID doesn't have to be used for your iCloud address. Just use your
iCloud address, assuming you have one already. If you don't you'll be prompted
to set one up. I use a gmail address for my Apple ID, but it doesn't come into
play at all in iCloud mail except as a sign-in ID.
HtH,
Teresa
