NO. You do not need to use quotation marks around sounds. Quotation marks are only used to show something someone said.

However, most poets do use italics to show sounds or when people talk.

And yes, those words are onomatopoeia, though splash is somewhat in between as it could also be a noun or verb.

Yes, you can use quotation marks for sounds like "bang" in a story to indicate onomatopoeia. It helps the reader to imagine the sound more vividly. Just make sure it fits well with the style and tone of your writing.
