Ive googled this but google was wrong....

I need a drill bit to tap 3/8"(10mm) threads, Google said 16mm but google was wrong its about 1mm out, Can you get 15mm drill bits? Is that what I need?

My machine tech teacher had some posters up as to what size bit to use for what tap. Would there be anything like that online for people to reference from?
