Answer

SQL Server Management Studio 2016 (as name says) contains Only SQL Server Management Studio that just GUI for managing any SQL infrastructure.

Form MSDN:-

SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is an integrated environment for managing any SQL infrastructure, from SQL Server to SQL Database. SSMS provides tools to configure, monitor, and administer instances of SQL from wherever you deploy it. SSMS provides tools to deploy, monitor, and upgrade the data-tier components, such as databases and data warehouses used by your applications, and to build queries and scripts.

Look at the downloads at the official download website. under Try SQL Server 2016 SP1 Express for free click Get started button.
