Correct, no foul without contact.

I've seen little kids screen with their arms straight out. Kinda funny.

In coaching, the biggest problem I had with screens was the person that the screen was set for (dribbler or cutter), cuts or dribbles so wide that the defender can easily get through the screen. I told the players to 'take some skin', i.e., bump your teammate so that there is no room for the defender to get through. I see players at ALL levels fail to use a screen properly.
