I think I found your problem, you do not have the correct package installed

[root at c7-db1 ~]# rpm -qa | grep maria
mariadb-libs-5.5.41-2.el7_0.x86_64
mariadb-server-5.5.41-2.el7_0.x86_64
mariadb-5.5.41-2.el7_0.x86_64
[root at c7-db1 ~]#

Install the mariadb-x package and you should be able to start the service
