Go call some french translators in your area, and ask them what their rate is.
Find the range of the rates and position yourself to be competitive in pricing.

It’s mainly depends on the text. The are for technical text for example is higher. The rate starts at $0,01/ sourceword, but that is pretty low. I think you should go for $0,03/ sourceword, as you have obviously no previous translaion experience.
