Answer 1

Joomla! is a so called Content Management System (CMS). A CMS is a PHP 'application' with that you can easily set up your own homepage. The special thing is: Content and design is separated. In order to make a suitable homepage you'll need some time to get into the thing.

Joomla! runs on a web-server (as a PHP application) and needs a MySQL database beside a PHP installation. My recommendation for free webspace is http://bplaced.net
