Normally the URI part of the URL (the part after the hostname) is used as a relative path from the document root to the desired file or directory.

The new URL may be on the same server or a different one and may itself be subject to redirection. The user is normally unaware of this process except that it may introduce extra delay while the browser sends the new request and the browser will usually display the new URL rather than the one the user originally requested.
