In the photos he demeaner seems very carm which I wouldn't expect from a wild tortoise. I have kept tortoises smaller than this in an outside enclosure with excess to a greenhouse all year in the uk so honestly he'd be fine outdoors. They tend to eat weeds and plants mostly have a look at this link for ideas on what weeds are safe. Diet and healthy growth
Grape vine leaves are perfectly good food too. When it gets cooler he may want to hibernate which probably in your part of the world he will do quite sucessfully in a sheltered area of soil.

Im In Turkey .
We Cant Keep Him Outdoors Because We Have Nothing To Keep Him In , He Is Too Small And Can Fit Through The Mesh/Wire.
Yes He Is Definetly 100% Wild , We Have Loads Of Wild Tortoises Around Here Keep Getting Into The Garden And You See Them By The Side Of The Roads Too, My Uncle Has Had Him For About A Month And For Some Reason The Tortoise Has Become Real Tame.
