You should register your domain. Globally. Probably you can do it for free, but don't hope too much. Most likely it will be "third level domain", like www.yoursite.freedns.com. If you want to have domain like www.yoursite.com, you have to buy it.

It's not a problem to create your DNS server, but nobody will know about this. When you register domain, the company propagates this information to the World. That's how everybody knows web sites names.
