Some people have already mentioned the answer but forgot to  mention one point.   If 
 you do a

select owner, table_name from user_tables;

It will show you all the tables you have access to, not necessarily ones owned by you. 
  If you want to see tables you have created add a where clause  WHERE owner = 'YOUR 
NAME'

If you want to see all the tables in the database use dba_tables but  you'll need to 
be granted access to it.
