When I double click my .html notepad file, it doesn't show the page is that normal?

It opens a browser window and shows the html code. It doesn't show the actual webpage. That means I need a webhost, and upload the file to the webhost, and then the html notepad document will show as a webpage, right? Or is the problem something else?
What do you mean by declared correctly? I made it in notepad as a .txt file. I converted it to .html on an online file converter. The icon for it is the same as a webpage. Should it have anything written before <html> and/or after </html> because it seems like most websites have something before and after.
I just tried this and it didn't work either.

<html>
<head>
<title>
Title
</title>
</head>
<body>Blah blah blah
</body>
</html>


Same problem, the html showed up as you will see here.
