Expostition equals basically chapter 1 and part of chapter 2 and the rising action is up to about when Piggy is killed(although according to the other definiton of climax it could be when Jack splits but it really is when Piggy is killed) then it falls until the officer comes in which is the resolution
The inciting incident of this story happens immediately, if not before the story. An inciting incident will introduce the problem that the novel or story tries to overcome or solve. In this case, the moment of the crash which leaves the boys stranded on a deserted island would be the inciting incident. This moment actually happens before the book occurs. If you need to have something within the text, I would argue thatthe moment the boys realize they are without adults should be the next best event to call the inciting incident.
