You're code is all correct, you are just hitting the wrong URL. Controller URLs are built with this formula:

http://example.com/frontName/actionControllerName/actionMethod/

The action name index will be applied if no action method is given. So in your case your URL would be http://example.com/helloworld/index with example being your domain. Since your action is index you don't have to expressly include it is the URL.
