As a petite female myself, I shoot a S&W 357 which also shoots 38's, a Glock 22, and a Glock 19.
It all depends on what feels comfortable in your hand.
That's true. I'm a short female too and I find the Glock 22 too heavy and too large for my hand for regular shooting.
But it seems a lot of us like our Glocks. I suggest the OP go to the gun store and hold some Glocks to decide what feels good in her hand. Also be sure to look at how it slides in case it is too small for your hand or even too large.

I'd suggest the gun that most every one starts with, a .22 rifle.
Like the ruger 10/22? Ruger just released a 10/22 take-down. I have been thinking about getting one to pink around with.
More like a single shot bolt.
The point is to learn handling, safety and marksmanshi
then get something that sprays bullets
I recommend a 38 revolver.
Lots of women have a hard time operating the slide on semi auto's. Getting a revolver will solve the problem of operating a slide that is hard to pull back.
Go to a gun show. You'll be able to try a whole bunch of guns to see how they fit your hand. There's one up in Frederick Md this Friday and Saturday.
