I found the solution. Type in your terminal:
cd /var/www/MYPHPSTORMFOLDER/PhpStorm-162.2380.11/bin
Press Enter and type:
./phpstorm.sh
Then PHPStorm will open and go to the Launcher in left side, you can find PHPStorm icon there and just right click on that, select the option "Lock to Launcher" . FYI : First install PHPStorm through terminal.
