edit, do you mean 3/8" nominal Cu pipe or 3/8" OD Cu tube?
You can likely use something like this for 3/8" OD Cu tube.

then use a small piece of 1/4 tubing to connect the reducing tee to a valve

If for some reason you have lots of money and want nicer products you can pick these up from Swagelok or McMaster-Carr instead of generic stuff from Amazon.
I think a 3/8" Cu pipe has an OD of 1/2" So you can just get a 1/2" compression fitting and use that instead of the 3/8" fitting:

I would replace that with an inline brass compression valve (with the water off, obviously). Make sure that fridge side has plenty of tubing for pulling it in & out.
