According to instructions in https://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/download/ PhpStorm.sh should be in the bin subdirectory

The contents of the file Install-Linux-tar.txt lays out the steps as follows:

Linux Installation Instructions

  1. Unpack the PhpStorm distribution archive that you downloaded to where you wish to install the program. We will refer to this destination location as your {installation home} below.

  2. Open a console and cd into "{installation home}/bin" and type:

    ./phpstorm.sh

    to start the application.

  3. [OPTIONAL] Add the "{installation home}/bin" to your PATH environmental variable so that you may start PhpStorm from any directory.

  4. [OPTIONAL] To adjust the value of JVM heap size open phpstorm.vmoptions (phpstorm64.vmoptions for 64-bit JDK), and modify the -Xms and -Xmx parameters.

    [OPTIONAL] Changing location of "config" and "system" directory
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ By default PhpStorm stores all your settings under ~/.WebIde80/config directory and stores data cache under ~/.WebIde80/system directory. If you want to change these settings,

  5. Open a console and cd into "{installation home}/bin"

  6. Open file "idea.properties" in an editor. You should find strings like

    idea.system.path=~/.WebIde/system

    and

    idea.config.path=~/.WebIde/config

    and change them.

  7. Note that we recommend to store data cache ("system" directory) at a disk with at least 1G bytes free space

I have copied the extracted folder to the /opt directory and then run the phpstorm.sh file from there. This setup works fine for me.
