put your html and php files in this folder:
c:\wamp\www

To view your website, start apache and mysql, then open your browser, and go to:
[localhost]

you do not need to register a domain, you work locally on your computer.

Do not use wamp as a webhost. It is designed for local testing and development, not for hosting. It has no security in place what so ever. Any 12 yr old with an internet account can hack your server in a few seconds.

If you want to have domain also dns service for testing and development purpose, as CyberSpatium mentioned, the answer is yes, just like my test web site here:
