How cmd_vel is given while using AMCL. Is there any kinematic model?. How can we add a kinematic robot model for navigation?

The AMCL is used for the localization of the robot it has nothing to do with cmd_vel. For the navigation of your robot have a look at the navigation wiki.

With the package move_base, there are plenty of tutorials in the link I gave you.

AMCL doesn't use command velocities, its looking for the poses from odometry in TF. Yes, AMCL has kinematic models which are described in the documentation.
