I want to buy a domain and I was wondering if you get any space to upload the pages to the site? Or do you have to buy a web host plan or something like that? And could you recomend a good site to get a domain from. I want it cheap too. Around $10 a year sounds good, if less.

Some host packages will get you the domain and the web address.
I found my host by reading reviews at cnet.com
The host I use is www.aplus.net. They seem pretty good so far. You may want to look around and see whats best for you.

I dont think you can find one at $10 a year. I pay $7 a month to keep up my hosting. That in it self is considered cheap.

So you have to have web hosting to put things on your site?

www.registerfly.com
and you get like 10 megs of space. It might've been upgraded. It's a good plan.
Now I use a plan through someone else that gives me the webhosting, as well as my forums for $15/mo....and I'm happy with it.

If you go to Registerfly.com , click on the left side where it says free services with ever registration. Gives you a bunch of details. and the web hosting space is 25 mb.

Can people go on the site with a good speed, or is it really slow?

www.enom.com or www.godaddy.com
www.mysitespace.com has excellent free webhosting. I used them for a while. I also use their paid plan now.
I an going to switch to a dedicated server at www.1and1.com as soon as my google ad check gets here.
