Dumb question - DNS done by me or ISP

Hello,

	I've got the IP 216.160.204.35.  This is owned by my ISP.  In setting up 
bind is it necessary for me to create the zone files for 
216.160.204.35.?  If they are doing the DNS for that IP, I should never 
have to create a zone file for it, unless if I lease the IP from them 
right?  If that is true then, is it ok for my named.conf file to look like 
this?

options {
         directory "/var/named";
	query-source port 53;
};

zone "." {
	type hint;
	file "root.hints";
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
         type master;
         file "pz/127.0.0";
};

and my 127.0.0 file to look like this?

@	IN	SOA	jdsl35.phnx.uswest.net. postmaster.andigilog.com.(
				20000712; 	Serial
				28800;		Refresh
				7200;		Retry
				604800;		Expire
				86400);		Minimum TTL
		NS	jdsl35.phnx.uswest.net.
1		PTR	localhost.

Thanks  a million
