The revolution started because no one in Russian was satisfied with the Tsar. He wasn't very good at ruling and many soldiers were dying in WWI. He went on the front to try and help his soldiers, but he only made it worse. The soldiers weren't given enough training, medical care, weapons, or even food. Also Russia's economy was very undeveloped compared to other countries. The people were tired of his rule and forced him to abdicate. Finally Lenin and his Bolshevik party take control of Russia and become the new government. Civil War then erupted between the Red Army (those fighting for communism) and the white army (those who wanted the rule of the Tsar to continue. The Red Army won since it gained all of the support from the peasant who wanted a classless society.

If by "first Russian Revolution" you mean the 1905 revolution, it was started by a march of over a hundred thousand demonstrators organized by a Father Gabon. They marched to the Tsar's Winter Palace in St. Petersburg in order to peacefully present petitions to him but palace guards fired on the crowd. Angry demonstrations began and the Tsar was forced to make certain concessions to the people to restore order.

If by "first Russian Revolution" you mean the February Revolution of 1917, it was started by a spontaneous demonstration of discontent with the government's inability to provide food and manufactured goods and to end the war in Europe. The initially small demonstration grew larger and larger as more workers, peasants and even soldiers joined the demonstrations and it became a full fledged revolt.
