Assuming Windows:

Navigate to your "localhost" folder (usally): C:\xampp\htdocs

Create a new folder called "ravi", and inside that folder create a file called: index.php

Put all your PHP code in that index.php file and save the file.

Then, after starting XAMPP, navigate to: http://localhost/ravi/

And you'll see your script running.

Of course your index.php should follow the php rules. For example your code has to start with 

<?php

and end with ?>

You can use this tutorial http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_syntax.asp to get some information regarding php how-to

1) Open the XAMPP Control Panel from the start menu.
2) To the right of where it says "Apache" click 'Start' button.
3) On the right side of the screen, click the 'Explore' button.
4) Open the "htdocs" folder. This will be your working directory where you put your php files.
5) As a test, make a new file called "hello.php" and put the following code in it:

<?php echo "Hello world!"; ?>

6) Now in your browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.) go to either of the following two links to run your PHP script from step 5:

http://127.0.0.1/hello.php
http://localhost/hello.php
