Whichever excites you the most neither is correct or incorrect and the best choice is the guitar that most motivates you to practice, learn and play. Deciding whether to choose an electric guitar or acoustic guitar as a first instrument really comes down to answering.

It's always better to start with a nylon string classical guitar. It won't hurt your fingers.

Is it possible to learn guitar from the internet and how much time it will take?
Yes. It is possible to learn from Internet. But I must say a teacher is pretty much required in the beginning because if you learn a wrong technique in the beginning then it becomes very difficult to unlearn then. Hope it helps. Best of Luck dear.
