That would be a nice relay for you but it solid state so you can prob find something cheaper if you want but like billruss said if you using your 5v dc as a control voltage and the 230v ac as your load this will definitely work for you

Use a transformer to step down the ac 230v to 6 volts (220/6v). Then use a bridge rectifier to convert it to DC. Use a capacitor of appropriate rating to smoothen the DC wave. Finally use a 7805 regulator to get 5V constant DC output.

initially transformers in basic terms paintings on AC and not DC. to comprehend this you may comprehend how a transformer works and how electricity and magnetism relate. besides, there is not any such element as frequency in connection with DC and you have 0 Hz. Your AC outlet is 60Hz. i might advise you end fidgeting with electricity till you comprehend what you're doing and the thank you to do it thoroughly.
