You'd think so; but it doesn't appear to be so. It's got descriptions (along with the class skills and their effects) for the classes; it's got descriptions for the spells; it's got descriptions for the races (along with their special abilities and modifiers); it's got descriptions for the stats, and listings of what rolls they modify. However, it seems to distinctly lack notes on, say, if the vital statistics need to be rolled up on 1d20, 3d6, or 5d4; or if they need to be "purchased" with some form of points in such a way that you always have X number of stats total at the start, starting cash, and the like.

The first chapter of the Player's Handbook covers all of that. I think the SRDs are meant solely as a reference, not as a complete guide.
edit:
Basics and Ability Scores seems to be what you need.
