1099-NEC for a paid internship

After completing a paid internship last year I received a 1099-NEC which was strange to me because I was generally considered part of the company as opposed to one of the contractors. In filing my taxes I'm asked to list myself as a small business which causes me to owe a small business tax. Is there a more appropriate way to file so I don't have to pay that?
