To get started with HTML you may want to try searching for some HTML Tutorials. Check out the following link:

W3Schools Online Web Tutorials

HTML will run in almost any browser and all you need is a webhost to make it. Nothing is needed to download or anything. Not to advertise or anything but I learned html easily by making a guild at Neopets.com.

html should be easy to learn. Once you are done with that I would suggest css. Don't get confused with HTML DOM, that is something different.

A good start would be getting some books and other resources to get a firm grasp on the HTML language. Once you got this down and you feel comfortable typing the code open up a editor (notepad and notepad++ are good choices.). When you have some code down you can open the browser of your choice and either go file ->open or just go ctrl o. (control open) Search for the html file that you wrote and open it, and it should open without a hassle.

All of the code can seem like a daunting task at first, and all of the things that you have to do can seem intimidating, just start practicing and it should get alot better. I have probably done over 10 website for just pure practice and i am still pretty bad at coding. Practice makes perfect.
And if you need anything else just message me.

you dont need a webhost to write html or make html pages.

you need to create a html document is a text editor to create the document and a web browser to view the document.

if the time comes when you want to publish your work you would use a webhost to host your html.

If you're running Windows, your computer already comes with IE and notepad. Those two things and a tutorial are all you need. Personally, I'd recommend getting Chrome or Firefox for your browser, and don't forget to look into CSS (cascading style sheets) which help with your arrangement and style among other things of your HTML pages.

As its been said, if you have notepad, you can start. It is an easy and fun language to learn. Youtube is good.

If you're going to do HTML, I suggest downloading Notepad++, it helps a lot. I also suggest getting books and using w3schools.com :that website is a huge help.

learn HTML - CSS - XHTML + CSS together. that's probably the easiest way to learn IMO
