Code Explanation:

In the code above https://webto.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead?encoding=UTF-8 is the form action where our data will go.
oid is the owner id, retURL is your website URL where CRM will redirect after form submit and other form fields are just your CRM Fields name
All these you can get, just visit this https://ap16.lightning.force.com/lightning/setup/LeadWebtoleads/home, login to your CRM and click on Create Web to Lead Form Button.
