You can run primary mail and DNS on your server and outsource backup mail and secondary dns to a third party which would work well.
Not many small providers seem to take the option of secondary dns and mail on a separate network so you see lots of xx.xx.xx.1 and xx.xx.xx.2 name servers kicking about that are usually hosted on the same box and lots of domains with only 1 mx record.
Your domain registrar may be able to host the dns zones for you and allow you to manage them but most just allow you to set remote name servers and you'll need somewhere that will act as a proper secondary dns service and run a zone transfer or you may need to have the remote name service set as master and enter the zones by hand. (I can't think of any dns providers that will import your zones and run a secondary service)
