Surf to your friendly neighbourhood ISP's web site and see if they
offer the service, and what it costs.

Alternatively, use a registrar's services. They are likely to be less
insistent about selling you hosting for your new domain as well. Or
they may have a Preferred Hosting Partner and never stop pestering
you.

Of course, a domain name alone doesn't exactly do much. You may want
hosting to go with it.

Some things to look out for are who the name is actually registered
to (not always you!), and how easy it is to get DNS records for your
domain added/changed.
