Is there an onload event for input elements?

No, there is no such event.

However, a <script> tag placed directly after the HTML element would have a similar effect: It would be executed directly after the element has been rendered:

<input type="text" id="input123" value="Hello World!">

<script>
alert("Input123 is now ready:"+document.getElementById("input123").value);
</script>

In most cases, however, it is best to use the document-wide load (or DOMReady, or jQuery’s .ready()) to start any script operations. The DOM will be fully ready then.
