Next day is too early to notice early symptoms of HIV or ARS. It takes 2-4 weeks. Also remember, not everyone gets HIV from a single incident of unprotected sex with a positive partner, therefore your chances of getting HIV are not very high, though they are not zero either.

Get yourself tested after 6 weeks and have a follow up test after 12 weeks to get a conclusive test and lay all your worries to rest permanently

No, But testing 3 months after this exposure is needed to rule out infection

Hope this helps
