if I received a 1099-misc for income do I need to fill out the section c form? will it help with my refund?

You should report the 1099-MISC in the Self-Employment section within Wages & Income.

After entering the income, you will be able to claim expenses to offset the income.  The IRS treats 1099-MISC income the same way as a small business, so they write-offs are more generous than your personal deductions on schedule A.
