You can use Emacs-w3m[1] to browse the web from Emacs.

BTW, I've made functions to browse and copy URL in Emacs[2][3].

- `C-c b' to browse the URL at point
- `C-c y' to copy the URL at point

You can customize which browser is used to browse an URL with
`gu-first-browse-url-function' and `gu-second-browse-url-function' (by
default it uses `browse-url-browser-function' and `browse-url-generic').
The first one is used by default, the second one when you use a prefix
(`C-u C-c b').
