There is such a thing as an s1f 1 configuration! This can occur, for example, in an excited state of a Pr3+ ion. For an s1f 1 configuration, do the following:
a. Construct a microstate table, showing clearly the relevant quantum numbers of each electron in each microstate.
b. Reduce this table to its constituent free-ion terms (with labels).
c. Identify the lowest-energy term (including J value).
