Download maven Binary zip archive (apache-maven-3.3.1-bin.zip) , then unzip the folder, you will find the setting.xml file inside the config folder.

If you have already set the path of maven (environment variables), then simply copy and keep the setting.xml inside config folder of your maven installation directory.
