amsmath or amsthm do not provide a thm environment, at least not in the
version v2.20.2 which is provided by TeXLive 2015.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}

\begin{document}

% ERROR: LaTeX Error: Environment thm undefined.
\begin{thm}
  This is a theorem.
\end{thm}

\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But when I define a new theorem environment, that will show up in `C-c
C-e'.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\newtheorem{mythm}{My cool Theorem} %% \newtheorem shows up in C-c RET

\begin{document}

\begin{mythm} %% mythm now shows up in C-c C-e
  This is a test.
\end{mythm}

\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
