It's in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf. Our favorite upstream vendor,
quite sensibly, includes all the config files from
/etc/httpd/conf.d/*.conf as a means to allow packages to publish their
own configurations and not require direct editing of httpd.conf.

I personally like to add a separate include statement in httpd.conf
for SSL related configurations, to grab conf.d/*.conf.ssl files, and
allow me to have different behavior for HTTP and HTTPS. This is very
handy for separating services like Subversion for read-only on HTTP,
and password based access via HTTPS for write access, or for pointing
people on HTTP access to a refresh page that says "You should be using
HTTPS, switching in a moment to this URL".

It should be available. What happes if you set up a simple "index.php"
file in /var/www/html/test/index.php  and go to http://hostname/test/
?
