is there anyway I can track my phone without a gps locator app?
 
It's almost impossible without gps... You can try:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidlost

Sign in to your play store account and install androidlost to your phone.

Then read up on it here: Android Lost

You can access your google account and manage your phone from the login at the top right of that page...

You can push the AndroidLost app to your phone from google play and initiate the connection to googles servers by sending an SMS with the message 'androidlost register' to your phone.

Good luck!
 
Without GPS to precisely pinpoint your device to within 3 meters or so, you would be relying on network towers to triangulate and locate your device. However: that method can get you in the general AREA of your phone (I'm talking an area possibly covering hundreds of meters!) but that would be about as accurate as you can get. Hope you find your phone: good luck :o
