The redirect URI you use (if any) is up to you as the developer. It is intended to be a URI you control, but you can choose whatever is appropriate and functional for your scenario.

Note that the OAuth app authorization flow should not be processed in an embedded browser or web view, per the documentation; it should only be processed in the user's system browser.
