Illustrator should be able to auto-trace that PNG file pretty easily.

But really whomever designed the icon needs to give you the original.

Failing that, learn how to draw a bezier curve and you could re-create it in a few minutes.

It might be described as a vector within the .PSD file.

Forgive me if this is being patronising, but super-simplistically:
Raster: pixels in a grid that have a colour
Vector: Instructions for how to draw lines and curves

You can make a vector as big or as small as you like.

A Photoshop file can have tonnes of stuff in it, multiple layers of raster images, text, vectors.
So just knowing the file format doesn't let us know for sure.
