As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website
1- Buy a domain name.
2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name
If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.
As an experienced webmaster I recommend BlueHost service which I?m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.
