    Hello,

    Go to the Appearance > Widgets panel in your dashboard and
    drag & drop Text Widget in the Home Page Sidebar Feature Widget Area.

    Code:
    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="Enter Your Self Uploaded Video URL Address Here" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 
    This will fulfill your requirement.
