If you are running a web server application, such as xampp, on your local machine, then your page is accessed by localhost/mysite, and other users on the intranet can access it via server's ip/mysite

The "www" is just the DNS name for a computer. Your network guys will have to put an entry for "www" into your DNS that resolves to your PC. If your company already has "www" mapped to their Internet web site then you'll have to pick another name like "dana" then your personal site could be dana.mysite.com. (I'm assuming here that "mysite" is really "mycompany".)
