There are many ways you can block http and https URLS in Windows. One option is you can use proxy server softwares like squid proxy server or Win gate proxy. These servers act as a firewall in Windows and helps you to block websites. You can see the below article for better understanding.

However, if you do not want to use any softwares then you can utilize the feature of Windows itself. You can block specific urls in your Windows computer. You have to edit your host file present inside your computer system c drive.
Your host file is present in the given path C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts .Inside the host file you have to edit the following. You need to give the address of the website you want to block.
127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com
127.0.0.1 www.anysite.com
127.0.0.1 www.anysite2.com
You can go through the link http://www.techsakh.com/2015/12/16/how-to-block-unwanted-sites-in-windows7/ It was written by me in my blog When I wanted to block such site. It worked on my computer I hope it will work in yours too.
