I think that things like gcc, make and Cmake should be already installed, but when I run the cmake command I get an error saying that no cmake has been found. When I try to install Cmake using ./configure the system says that no C compiler has been found. To install gcc I think I also need make and when I run ./configure I get the following message:

Since it sounds like you have root access, just install them from the
OS package manager e.g.
yum install cmake gcc
