What registrar was your domain purchased through? – GrumpyCrouton Oct 24 '17 at 12:41

That's fine, but you have to register a domain for that to work. – GrumpyCrouton Oct 24 '17 at 12:44

You can't map a domain that you don't own to your local website. For now, you will have to connect to your site via your IP or localhost. – GrumpyCrouton Oct 24 '17 at 12:49

For local connection only, you can modify your [hosts file.](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3266483/editing-hosts-file-to-redirect-url) I.e. 127.0.0.1 -> google.com. When you go to google.com it gos to 127.0.0.1 – IsThisJavascript Oct 24 '17 at 12:50

Create the local host name as
sudo echo "127.0.0.1 mysite.local" >> /etc/hosts
Now you can redirect to your application with mysite.local
