Programmatically create contact list

I know how to programmatically add contacts to a contact list, either through the contact itself, or through the List Manager API:

xContact.SetListSubscriptionsFacet(xConnectClient, listId);

Source: https://www.brimit.com/blog/sitecore-9-list-manager-changes

var subscriptionService = serviceLocator.ServiceProvider.GetService<ISubscriptionService>();
subscriptionService.Subscribe(contactListId, contactId);

Source: https://doc.sitecore.net/sitecore_experience_platform/digital_marketing/the_list_manager/the_list_manager_api

But none of these services have anything on how to programmatically create a list. I can probably do it a dirty way by manually adding an item to /sitecore/system/Marketing Control Panel/Contact Lists (based on Contact List template), but if Sitecore needs to do some indexing or other things when creating lists, this will of course not be enough.

So how can I programmatically create a contact list?

For Sitecore 9.x, you need to go through the IDefinitionManager<IContactListDefinition> e.g.:

var definitionManager = ServiceLocator.ServiceProvider.GetService<IDefinitionManager<IContactListDefinition>>();
definitionManager.SaveAsync(new ContactListDefinition(Guid.NewGuid(), "alias", culture, "name", DateTime.UtcNow, createdBy))

Here is the code which allows to create a contact list programatically in Sitecore:

private Guid CreateContactList()

 ContactListModel entity = new ContactListModel();
 Guid guid = Guid.NewGuid();
 entity.Id = guid.ToString();
 entity.Type = ListType.ContactList.ToString();
 entity.Name = "My new contact list";

 IRepository<ContactListModel> contactListRepository = (IRepository<ContactListModel>) ServiceLocator.ServiceProvider.GetService(typeof(IRepository<ContactListModel>));
 contactListRepository.Add(entity);
 return guid;
