You should raise to 2.

Holding a second suit and 3-card support for partner's
major, when do you bid your second suit and when do
you raise?

With 12-15 points, raise right away, and bid your second
suit on your third bid (if you have the chance to bid again
below game). With 16+ points, first bid your second suit,
and raise partner on your third bid (given the chance).
