You need to publish this as feature service first before you could use the REST end point as Url. http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/help/arcgis_server_dotnet_help/index.html#/Publishing_feature_services/009300000022000000/

At this time, ArcGIS server is mandatory.
The upcoming ArcGIS Runtime SDK will provide access to local resources. This product is a part of ArcGIS 10.1 that is in beta (see https://betacommunity.esri.com/)
