You need to read all the documentation in my signature and as a guide to link Anope and Unreal read this post: http://forum.anope.org/index.php?topic=1267.0

You'll need to buy a domain from a registrar to have irc.mydomain.com. There are hundreds of registrars, just pick one. You will need DNS to assign DNS records to your domain, you will need a shell/vps/dedicated server to run your server. There is a massive amount of stuff you need to know to run even a simple public server.

If you are doing this for fun I suggest you download the installer package for your OS and play with it locally until you know how to link servers and know what the commands do. That can be done for free.
