You only need to tell your health care provider you'd like to be tested for STDs. You and your provider will discuss risk factors, medical history, immunization history, and the costs and benefits of the tests and decide which tests make sense for you.

Blood tests can detect syphilis, HIV, and hepatitis B and C. Blood tests for antibodies to herpes are available, but they can't tell you if you have oral herpes (cold sores) or genital herpes, so most people don't find them useful.
