2It's going to depend on the employer and the position. Some employers do a background check and no drug test. Some do a drug test and no background check. Some do both (and different companies have very different definitions of what a background check entails).– Justin CaveFeb 12, 2022 at 7:32

If I have to submit a urine test does that automatically mean I'll get a background check
No, it doesn't automatically mean that a background test will be required.
Drug tests and background tests are two separate things. In most locales, permission from you would be required before each.
I was not told anything about a background check will they later say it
They may. In some domains, in some locales, it's routine.
