I have installed Splunk app for AWS, but why I can't see a page where I can enter my access key and secret key?

The Splunk App for AWS requires the Splunk Add-on for Amazon Web Services which handles the configuration for access and secret keys for your account. The add-on can be found here: https://apps.splunk.com/app/1876/

Follow the instructions here: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/latest/AWS/Singleserverdeployment or here http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/latest/AWS/Distributeddeployment depending on your deployment.
tl;dr: To enter AWS credentials go to Manage Apps screen, click Set up under Actions in the row for Splunk Add-on for AWS.
