However, if you have already picked up the car and want to extend the rental period, then you need to contact the specific car rental company for this.

Each car rental agency has its own policy when it comes to renting cars to new drivers. While some agencies will require you to hold your driver's license for at least one year, others will simply require that your driver's license is valid for the rental period. You should confirm this directly from the agency while shopping for the car to rent.
