Modern bikes use virtualized sizing, which means the nominal size (or advertised size, or the size that it would ride like if it were built traditionally) corresponds to no actual dimension of the frame. Looking at this frame's actual dimensions, after studying hundreds of geometry charts, I'd estimate this bike to be a nominal 55 or 56, or a 54-55 if it's meant to use 650b or 26" wheels. That means it's too big for you. You could install the fork and put wheels on it and see. I would keep looking for a 50 or a 52 with a shortish top tube.
