I don't think you would need a domain name for the intranet. You can simply use the canonical name(or IP address) of the server.
Domain would be helpful if you wanted the WORLD to be able to reach their intranet site.

put a DNS server and point the ip address with the domain from your DNS server. You will have to configure all the clients to use your dns server as the dns server

Now I have another query ?

I installed IIS with Frontpage Server Extension support from windows XP cd and in administrative Tools IIS setting, I put Host Header Name i.e. www.test.com. Its work the client PC in network can access my webpage by typing www.test.com on their PC. its all ok.
But the problem is that I am using Frontpage to publish webpage when ever I want to publish my webpage through Frontpage Server Extension option and address "*www.test.com" it show error that you might not installed Frontpage Server Extension. but if I dont put Host Header Name and in address box I put "*localhost" that webpage will publish easily.

What is the problem man ?
