I found the answer and it is not possible since private channels don’t have a group mailbox.

1. Create the calendar in the sharepoint page behind your Teams channel. (Settings cog, add an app, calendar)
2. Copy the URL for the calendar.
3. In the private teams channel, add an app. Choose Website. Paste URL.

When you say you created a calendar in the general tab, did you create it as a channel calendar? If you did, that is only applicable to that specific channel. i.e., General.
You would want to go to your private channel that you want a calendar in, then in the options Open in Sharepoint.
After you get there you would create a Calendar using the classic apps by navigating to classic sharepoint. I think there are steps for all that in previous posts here.
Once you have the calendar created, you can then link it as a "Website" link to your private teams channel that you would like it in.
I do not like "channel calendars" (referring to the teams app) as anything put into them adds the same event to your outlook calendar...which can make for a busy calendar.
