It sounds like your friend added you to a Family Sharing group. If his name and address are showing as the family organizer’s payment information, you can’t edit those details because they belong to his account.
First check Settings > [your name] > Payment & Shipping and add your own payment method there.
If you want your own iCloud+ plan instead of using his shared iCloud storage, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud and look for the option to upgrade to iCloud+.
I wouldn’t leave the Family Sharing group just to change the billing information, since that can also remove access to other shared subscriptions and purchases.
If the name at the very top of Settings is actually your friend’s name instead of yours, that’s a different issue.
