I got a cheap clematis root at Wal-Mart which is growing nicely.
However, nothing on the package told me what kind it was and when to
prune it. I am aware there are two different approaches.

The picture on the box shows a white flower with a red central streak.
Mine is too little to even think about flowering, so I don't know if
that is what it really will look like. (My plants rarely end up looking
like the pictures on boxes or seed packets, which isn't always bad, but
is making me something of a cynic.)

The baby vine is about 15 inches high right now, growing up the base of
a trellis.

What if anything should I do about pruning it?
