You need 2 things at first:

1. You need to have an static external IP address. Either your network admin or your ISP should provide you with one.

2. Once you have the IP, you need to register a DNS name, and point to that IP address.

Alternatively, if you cannot get a static external IP address, you can use a Dynamic DNS (DDNS) service, however you need to make sure your IP address is accessible externally

1. Find out your external IP address (probably in your router configuration).
2. Make sure your router and/or firewall allow external traffic to your Jenkins port (8080)
3. Register on some free DDNS server, such as http://www.noip.com/free
