What Are Chances Of Contracting HIV Or STD?

I had unprotected sex a few nights ago and I am quite anxious that I have contracted an STD/STI in particular HIV. I had stated that I would like to use protection, but after the insertive partner ejactulated inside me, I realised he was not wearing a condom. There were no visible STI/STD’s, and we used plenty of lubriaction, furthermore he assured me that he tests regularly and is clean from any deceases and infections. I was considering having a PCR RNA test after 10 days. Do you believe it is worth doing? Or should I wait until I can avail of a free DUO test at the 28 day mark. Also, what is your general thoughts on the likelihood of exposure? Thanks.
