Hi silent463, welcome to RadioReference

Hi,

I have the uniden BearCat BC350C Scanner (the nascar one) and I'm looking for help with finding frequencies for my area, I live in Gainesville Texas (Cooke county)

You can program in the freq.'s found here from the database at this link:
Cooke County, Texas (TX) Scanner Frequencies and Radio Frequency Reference

The scanner I bought from the local pawn shop didn't come with a power source. It needs DC 13.8V and I have a 9V source home power source can I use this without having any problems?

It won't work well, probably no display. Go to RadioShack for a proper power supply.

Can i pick up cell phones and stuff like that or just the police fire aircraft and CB??

No, since 1986 the cell phone portion of the 800 band has been omitted.
Stick with the other services you mentioned, you should be happy.
