Force React component that have not mounted to DOM render?

Question

I have a class that's a component of React. How can I force that class render and return to me a DOM element?

For example:

class MyComponent extends React.Component{...}
const myVirtualDOMComponentButNotMountToAnywhere = <MyComponent {...someprops} />

// is there any function that
const myDOMElement = MyComponent.createDOMElement();
// or
const myDOMElement = myVirtualDOMComponentButNotMountToAnywhere.renderAsDOMElement();
// return a result that similar to
document.createElement(...);

I want to get that DOM element to perform custom mount (or what ever I want to) to that DOM element as the result from my function I expect that similar to the result of document.createElement() .

For another example as a real usecase:

import { Link } from 'react-router-dom';
const myLink = <Link to='/...' />
const myDOMLink = myLink.renderAsDOMElement();
document.getElementById('someId').appendChild(myDOMLink);

I may was too overthinking. It was provided as an API of react-dom : render

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
ReactDOM.render(<MyComponent />, document.getElementById('someId'))
