I suppose you use bitcoin core qt? If that's the case using Google I found this...

Run Bitcoin-QT
Select Help (to the right of Settings)
Select Debug Window
Select Console
If you encrypted your wallet, unlock it by entering walletpassphrase "YourLongPassphrase" 600 next to the > input box
Next to the > input box type importprivkey <bitcoinprivkey> (Note that the private key must not have spaces, remove them if they are included in your backup)

If you don't have really fast internet than it might take months for you download full bitcoin blockchain with bitcoind wallet.

You can try electrum, it is SPV wallet which never store your private key in their server just like bitcoind and you will have full control over your bitcoin/private key.

You don't have to download whole blockchain for using electrum.
