Configuring Windows 7 Firewall?

I was trying to configure the Windows 7 firewall to block all programs by default, and allow only specific programs to connect to the Internet (which I allow myself).

It should display a message when the program tries to connect to the internet for the first time (Asking, whether I want to allow the program). Just like the other Firewalls like Comodo, and Norton Internet Security works.

Is it possible to configure the firewall like that?

I am not getting the options in Inbound and Outbound Rules in the firewall settings. It will either block all the programs or allow certain programs using its own logic.

If it is not possible, I will go for a third party firewall.
