Put him to bed on a regular schedule of your choice. You keep it regular.

Make sure he's comfy and dry and not hungry. Then it's pat pat, smooch smooch, lights out. (He doesn't need a night light. There's no reason to be afraid of the dark unless you teach him that he should not be left in the dark.) Calm and matter of fact. "Good night, baby dear, see you later."

It's okay to let him cry. You have to be tough enough to take it. It could go on for hours the first night. Maybe not as long the second. Let him run down. Stuck to your guns. It won't make him very happy, safe, or secure to know that mother folds at the first sign of pressure, will it? This will be an important point for, oh, the next 17 years or so.

What is the best time schedule to feed a newborn?

The best schedule with a newborn is to have no schedule and feed the baby on demand. The baby will certainly let you know when it's hungry. Having said that, you should not let your baby sleep for more than 3 or 4 hours without a feed in the early days. Within a few weeks/months you will notice the routine that your baby needs and can plan around it.
