Change the system IP for remote access with my own name

Hi,

I wanna give some name to my static IP address so that my friends can access my Server IP using that Name.

For example
if myIP: 122.155.147.65
rename it to: rakeshweb.in

Some one told to change DNS. I don't know much about this please someone guide me here.

that would be the computer's localhost DNS, but it will only work if it is in all of your friends' computers

It is normally found in the hosts file in:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

hosts content:
#########################################
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
122.155.147.65 rakeshweb.in
# end of hosts content
#########################################

Or you could officially register the name "rakeshweb.in" on the web
