I need to setup Kodi to Raspberry Pi 3 and view TV in same Raspberry.
I cannot connect it to another computer or phone.

Both LibreElec and OSMC have add-ons in their repos which provide TVH servers on the same device. It's perfect possible to run everything on one Pi (I have a Pi3B+ at home which does this with LE).
You then just install the TVHeadend PVR addon under Kodi as well, and point it at either the IP address of the Pi (available from the network tab in system information under the settings menu option) or just to localhost (127.0.0.1) as in reality they're the same device.

There you do have to use another device on your network (a computer, tablet or phone) that does have a web browser.
Then just point it at 192.168.x.x:9981, replacing x.x with the IP address of your Pi.
The username and password aren't root and libreelec for this (those are the access credentials for SSH access).
When you first go to the TVH server you set up (first access the web page above) you set everything up, including username and password. Those are the ones you use in the PVR.
You have to set things up on the TVH server first (not just log-in credentials, but also the details of the backend which is supplying the channels (your stick in this case). There's a wizard which should walk you through it, but it's only accessible via the web interface.

Or are there other backends which works with Elgato TV-sticks and which don't require 2 computers?
