You can use

:below new

which you can read about at

:help :below

If you want it to always split below, you can investigate the
'splitbelow' option

:help 'splitbelow'

which you can set in your vimrc so that new/split windows are
created below the current one instead of above it. However, it's
easy enough to override with the ":bel" command.
