If you did a standard install there should be a file /etc/yum.conf and a
directory /etc/yum.repos.d
In the directory there should be several files ending in .repo
(fedora.repo and fedora-updates.repo are of prime interest here).

The contents of those .repo files will solve your problem. My
fedora-updates.repo file contents (totally as distributed) are below.
Note that the lines baseurl and mirrorlist are wrapped by the mailer but
a single line in the file.

------------------------------------
[updates-released]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Released Updates
#baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch/
mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/updates-released-fc
$releasever
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora
-----------------------------------------

Note the last line which begins with gpgkey.  It tells yum where to look
for the gpgkey.

Yum should tell you there is no key available, then ask for permission
to import the one listed.  Let it do the import and you will be all set.

Alternatively you can use an rpm command to do the import prior to
running yum.
  # rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora
