If you serve that file through a webserver (here apache2), you could do
something like this:

   [[http://localhost/~user/path/to/file.html][file.html]]


I serve several directories in my home directory to either localhost
only, or to the intranet here. You simply can add entries to your
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf (on GNU/Linux) like this:


    Alias /devel "/home/sebastian/develop/htdocs"
    <Directory "/home/sebastian/develop/htdocs">
        Options Indexes MultiViews
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from 192.168.178.0/255.255.255.0
        Allow from 127.0.0.1
    </Directory>


...and adjust the network as needed.
