Don't rely on a snail to "clean up for you" - they may eat a bit of algae but they poo a lot more than they eat and they contribute to the mess in the tank!
Especially for a new tank, you don't have enough algae for the snail to feed off of yet, and for a 10 gallon with one frog, you should be able to maintain it. Serious snail keepers also feed their snails other than relying on algae because it is not enough to sustain off of.
I do not recommend snails with frogs at all - when the frog gets older he could attempt eating a snail and choking on it... or here is what happened with my own experience...
