The default hello-world image from docker has no extra service running inside it so therefore exits after printing the default text. As such you cannot view it using docker ps which is command for viewing currently running containers.
To view running/stopped containers, run docker ps -a
See the image on how the docker ps and docker ps -a command show different results for the `hello-world image.
How did you run it? If I remember correctly, the hello world example just echos and quits, so running docker ps immediately afterwards won't show you anything.
Try this instead:
docker ps -n 1
That will essentially show you the most recent container you ran and its state.
