An opening is not only one move. You can start with the move you showed, 
but you have to know what de next moves are. Ther are Books with many 
openings also with your opening. Watch for it, and you know the name of 
you opening. Then you know the the first 10 usely moves (or more). When 
you know the name you can look for a book about your opening. then you 
know more variations. If you can play with this opening, you have a good 
(or a normal) opening.
