the yum installed version defaults to putting the data directory in
/var/lib/pgsql/9.4/data ... There's a bunch of reasons to stick with
this, not the least thats where selinux is configured to expect it to be.
I would recommend mounting a database filesystem as /var/lib/pgsql
first, then doing the following as root...
/usr/pgsql-9.4/bin/postgresql94-setup initdb
systemctl enable postgresql-9.4.service
systemctl start postgresql-9.4.service
the server is now running, and will autostart when you reboot.
