I'm mixed up here. Why do you need a home server with PHP?

For the same reason you have a development environment for any kind of
software you write. You create and test, fix bugs, and test again,
before you upload/distribute to the public.

Of course, if you write only in plain, pure HTML, a browser alone is all
that is necessary.

Look up LAMP and/or WAMP (depending on your operating system).
