I don't have an accommodation

Hi I'm an international student and I really had no idea that we had to apply for accommodations before the exams. Is it too late to apply for accommodations now?

According to this page (https://www.cardiff.ac.uk/study/accommodation/apply-for-accommodation/undergraduates) they accept late applications (which yours would be if Cardiff was your firm) on a first-come-first-served basis, so it would be ideal to get it sorted ASAP.

If Cardiff was your insurance then the guarantee deadline hasn't passed yet. Also the fact that they seem to be guaranteeing accommodation for clearing applications (https://www.cardiff.ac.uk/clearing/accommodation) suggests they aren't fully booked up yet, so definitely still worth applying even if you are late.
