Which term defines the famous speech by Hamlet in Shakespeare and play of the same name?

The word you are looking for is probably "soliloquy", although this word does not define all of the Famous Speeches Hamlet gives. It does define "O that this too too solid flesh would melt", "O what a rogue and peasant slave am I", "To be or not to be, that is the question", "Now is the very witching hour of night", and "How all occasions inform against me". But it does not describe what is probably Hamlet's second-most famous speech, "Alas! Poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio" which is of course part of a conversation with Horatio, or the very famous "What a piece of work is man" speech he gives to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.Probably you are thinking of the word "soliloquy" which means a speech by a character which is not intended to be heard by any other characters on stage. A soliloquy might be thought of as an extended aside.

What is a speech that an actor delivers to the audience when no one else is on stage?

This is not clear enough for us to give a specific answer. The most likely answer is that it's either an "aside" or a "soliloquy". Both of these are more or less the theatrical equivalent of a "thought balloon" in a comic strip. The other characters on stage generally do not react to these, as they are supposed to represent the private thoughts of the character speaking. Asides are usually short, often comedic and/or pithy, and directed specifically at the audience, while soliloquies can be long and are intended to represent the character "talking to himself" with no awareness of the audience at all. In other words, asides "break the fourth wall" while soliloquies do not.
