You could either a) create a Symbol and a Footprint pair or b) just use a standard header pinout. For something like this, I would go with option B). I would add a "Conn_01x09" in the schematic and use net-labels to identify the pins. For...
From my perspective, the way I'm working so far is to create my own symbol and footprint libraries (they are separate in KiCAD, whereas in EAGLE it is all in one library file), and then do 'Save As' to save existing symbols or footprints to my own...

Adding a component requires you to pick the symbol marked “place symbol.” It will ensure that the component chooser pops up, from which you have to pick a good match (symbol) representing the component you want—for instance, a resistor. You then have to place this symbol in the ...
