I have copied desired MP3 file into /storage/emulated/0/Notifications
.
What next?
There is no Add
button in ringtone list:

There is only note-iconed button in the upper right corner. If I press it, the following strange screen appears:

It contains some unknown list of music without my ringtone.
How can I set a custom ringtone?
UPDATE
I have rebooted my phone and nothing changed. For some time after reboot I was unable to press note-iconed button since it was saying "Updating" or "Refreshing" in Russian. This was probably that media-scanner running.
So, I now know how to run media-scanner but still can't change my ringtone.
UPDATE 2
I have put the file into /storage/emulated/0/Ringtones
. Also I checked that it appeared in /sdcard/Ringtones
and rebooted my phone.
Nothing changed.
UPDATE 3
My phone is Sony Z3 Xperia Compact
.
.mp3
, the Android system might not know about it yet (as the media scanner didn't pick it up yet). Apart from that, it won't turn up as ringtone anyhow, as you've copied it to be a "notification sound" (see e.g. my answer here). – Izzy♦ Jan 29 '16 at 11:35
