There's no "registering" of the server you need to do to send email to it, yourname@IP.AD.DR.ESS or yourname@yourinternethostname would do the job temporarily but ideally you'd want to be using your own domain.
For that, you'd need to register one and then point the MX record to the static IP. You'd need to have full control over at least the A and MX records in DNS of your domain for this to work but several domain hosts allow this.
