Chances are, your ports are either closed on the firewall and/or you need to forward them on your router.

If you just want to set up a game among friends, the easiest thing to do would probably be to grab Hamachi and set up a network.  People on your network will be able to see your server just like on a LAN.

It might have just been showing up as a LAN server.  Only dedicated servers should show up on the public list, and typically you can't see your own Internet server.
