For Home Page :

{{block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" block_id="block_identifier"}}

For Category :

Go To Magento Admin -> Catalog -> Categories.
Edit the Category into which you want to show that block.
Go To Display Setting section on right side.
Set "Display Mode" either to "Static block only" or "Static block and products" according to your requirement.
Set your CSM block into the "Add CMS Block" fields.

Now clear the cache and check the frontend.

Thanks for your reply but what I'd like to achieve is to list and display, with some PHP code, all the first level categories in the static block.

Then you can added the block by xml for all categories, and in phtml first check if this is first level category then show the block otherwise not.

I want to add the block to the homepage only, then, in that block, I'd like to list all first level categories using PHP.
