To see the hostname or use it in your playbook, you use the ansible_hostname 
or ansible_fqdn variables.

As Jonathan Cha'gara Lozada De La Matta mentioned, the hostname module can 
set it, but many applications still (incorrectly) rely on it also being in 
the /etc/hosts file.  Here's what I've done in my playbooks:

  - name: Setup hostname on system as {{ network_hostname }}.{{ 
network_dnsdomain }}
    hostname:
      name: "{{ network_hostname }}.{{ network_dnsdomain }}"


  - name: Add hostname to local /etc/hosts file
    lineinfile:
      dest: /etc/hosts
      state: present
      regexp: "^{{ network_ipaddr }}"
      line: "{{ network_ipaddr }}   {{ network_hostname }}.{{ 
network_dnsdomain }} {{ network_hostname }}"

In this case, I set network_* variables before calling this - my systems 
occasionally confuse Ansible and the ansible_hostname/ansible_fqdn are 
incorrect.
