Post result of
env | sort
(remove from the output irrelevant variables like "color" and so on.)

you need to set the environment variable ORACLE_SID
or
use a valid tns entry.

connecting to local DB should NEVER throw TNS related error.
Above indicates a serious mis-configuration exists at OS/Networking level.
Root cause has nothing to do with Oracle.
Oracle is victim; not culprit

issue following OS commands

uname -a
cat /etc/hosts

COPY commands above & the results then PASTE all back here

can you successfully ping both hostname & host's IP#

The environment varriables you posted and the error you mentioned are not compatible.

Execute both commands in the same shell and post the result:
env | sort
rman target /
Copy and paste the whole shell session INCLUDING the command lines.

Michel
