    You can use .\SQLEXPRESS as the server name.

    Check this link

    EDIT:-

    From the comments below posted by the user(thought that it is useful)

    You can install SQL Server as an instance, which allows you to run
    multiple environments on the same machine (ie. localhost\dev and
    localhost\prod). If you install MSSQL Server Express, it defaults the
    instance name to localhost\SQLEXPRESS
