It being your first manual, It sounds like you let off, and in turn your foot was pressed on the gas pedal pulling you back, and then from that your foot suddenly came off of the gas, so then you had that hard jerk again. First gear is pretty sensitive because It's a really short gear.

If your car is still running fine after that, I think its safe to say there's no mechanical issues here.

Don't suddenly let off the throttle at high RPMs in a low gear unless your taking it out of gear in the process. With more time driving, you'll have better control of the throttle preventing situations like this.
