Mar 22, 2011 at 20:03 comment added Laurent Moret-Bailly Well, take $Y$ to be an irreducible curve with one node, and $X=$ the normalization minus one of the points above the node.
Mar 22, 2011 at 19:15 comment added Mikhail Bondarko Thank you! Actually, I am mostly interested in the case when $X$ is regular and connnected (see the update). Does this help?

Mar 22, 2011 at 16:24 comment added Angelo I just saw Laurent's comment. Since he makes exactly the same points as my answer, and was posted earlier, I deleted my answer.
Mar 22, 2011 at 15:51 comment added Laurent Moret-Bailly There are lots of monomorphisms of schemes (even of finite type) which are not of this form: take $Y=\mathbb{A}^1_k$ ($k$ a field) and take for $X$ the disjoint union of $\mathbb{G}_{m,k}$ and the origin. You need to assume, at least, that $f$ is a homeomorphism on its image, plus something to ensure that the image is locally closed (think of the inclusion of a generic point).
