I'm not sure why your resulting "a.out" file is
ending up in /usr/bin BUT... normally you would
have to be a priviledged user (i.e. root) to
be able to write into that directory. I would
strongly recommend that you DO NOT experiment
with writing and compiling programs as root
(or any other priviledged user). Login to your
system as an ordinary user to do this sort of
thing.

On directing the compiler, try the "-o" option
to generate your executable...

gcc -o hello hello.c

...will compile the C program "hello.c" and will
create an executable file called "hello" in
the current working directory.
