file:/// is correct. With URLs, the high-level is some sort of network identifier, the next is the host, followed by the absolute path on the filesystem. http://host/directory/file.ext says to use nothing for the network ID (that's the absence of anything between the two slashes). file:///C:/blabla says to use nothing for the network ID *and* nothing for the hostname (which isn't needed for a local file).
