chrome_options = uc.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-dev-shm-usage")
chrome_options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-popup-blocking')

driver = uc.Chrome(options=chrome_options)

driver.get('https://nowsecure.nl')

This means the Chrome executable hasn't been found.

You'll need to specify the path to the browser when initializing uc.Chrome with browser_executable_path:

browser_executable_path: str, optional, default: None - use find_chrome_executable
    Path to the browser executable.
    If not specified, make sure the executable's folder is in $PATH
