If you mean simply registering / creating your own domain name ...
Sure, its easy - and there are many places to do so.
Some easy and quick ones include:
- http://www.godaddy.com
- http://www.namecheap.com
- http://www.registerfly.com
- http://www.moniker.com
- http://www.google.com/a/ (new one, as mentioned on front page).
... and the list is endless, there are so very many.
When registering a domain just make sure your registrar is ICANN accredited so you know everything is in the right hands. :)

Well I use www.titanhost.com but I know they are quite expensive at £11 for 2 years but really that isn't alot of money anyway. I think you can get it down to £2-£5 you could go to www.123-reg.com .
I hope that helps you but really there isn't much difference between 5 and 10 pounds...
