This works:

Title: "Search with DuckDuckGo"
URL: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

it should then appear in the completion popup when you type something
in the URL entry.

I guess t=epiphany is to identify the search as coming from epiphany,
that is optional but would work too :)

Right. We do not support this atm, but it's in our plans!

Ah, sorry. "org.gnome.epiphany.keyword-search-url" is the dconf config
path for the option. You can set it with dconf-editor or doing
something like:

gsettings set org.gnome.Epiphany keyword-search-url
"https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%s";

Hope that helps,
