"This morning" is correct. Occasionally you might hear 'today morning' used emphatically to mean 'this very morning' but it is incorrect (and most people who use it this way know it to be incorrect but use it this way in order to make their idea 'stand out').
You can only safely use a language incorrectly if you are VERY sure that you can use it correctly (and if you are sure that your audience understand what you are doing).

it's "this morning". using "today morning" on the other hand seem to be grammatically incorrect. however, when you use "today"(disregarding the "today" word) in a sentence, it may mean somehow similar to that of "this morning" but to some extent. for example, using "today" in a sentence could mean the entire day, except ofcourse the night time(tonight). using "this morning" only covers the morning times and not exceeding any further. i hope this helped. see you around!
