You don't need to replace it,
If it's just a screw sized hole , it may not need any repair.
At worst, if it's a big hole, a tyre patch should suffice. Usually included in decent repair kits,

Before using web, have you thought of calling into a local bike shop, good to support local if you can.
Loads of websites,
Some Common ones are wiggle, chain reaction cycles, Merlin, pbk, swim cycle run(irish site),
bike24,
Others here would be able to recommend other sites

There is no need to change the front tyre as well. No question is stupid if you want to know the answer!
