You do have a port for connecting the plug-in adapter for a brake controller under your dash. This is typically found under the dash to the left of the console. The attached photos shows the connector and where it should be.

It could be really buried under the dash though. Get a good flashlight and start digging through the wires under the dash since sometimes it can be somewhat out of reach.

The 2015 Ram uses harness #3024-P for the P2 brake controller #90885. The 2-plug harness was for previous models and is not a fit for the 2015. It is the white connector that you have described up under the dash.
