Did you consider putting alias of that database into the TNSNAMES.ORA file so that you wouldn't have to remember IP address and port number, but simply say something like
sqlplus testdb/testdb@my_db

If you're being asked for a hoststring, it looks to me like you're attempting to connect to sql*plusW, rather than sql*plus.

To connect to a local XE installation, a simple

sqlplus testdb/testdb


should do the trick.
