Change default catalog

It seems that when I am connecting to Databricks Warehouse, it is using the default catalog which is hive_metastore. Is there a way to define unity catalog to be the default?

I know I can run the query

USE CATALOG MAIN

And then the current session will use unity-catalog. But I am looking for a way that it will always be the default. So, if the first query after login we will be

CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS MY_SCHEMA

The schema will be created inside the main catalog.
