The most basic way would be: - install a nameserver (BIND) somewhere, and make sure it's reachable on tcp+udp port 53 from the entire world - set up one or more zonefile, configure domain(s) in named.conf - configure one or more external slave servers to _also_ be authoritative for your domain(s), fetching updates from your master DNS server. - make sure your slave server(s) can actually do a zone transfer from your master. You might also want to prevent others (anyone except your slave servers) from doing this. - register/buy the domain name(s) if you haven't already done so. - tell your registrar to configure your parent domain so it'll delegate your domain to your nameservers.
