Choose the color None to remove the red stroke. Click the Stroke color below the Fill color here in the Properties panel and make sure that the Swatches option is still selected. Now to change the Stroke color for the selected shape, in this case you'll remove it.
Make sure you wind up with a red color in the shape. Try clicking a few of the colors to see how they look in the document and notice that there are some pattern and gradient swatches as well. Each new document you create comes with a number of default swatches. Make sure the Swatches option is selected. There's also an option for mixing or creating your own color.
