With hosting, you get what you pay for. And especially for what you want - you should not consider for free. It will cost you more headaches that it is worth. You would be spending your valuable time trying to figure out why your site it down or why you cannot access your e-mail.

Check out http://www.1st-amendment.net/ for some hosting solutions.

Then look at these sites to help you get an idea on hosting providers:

Hi Wshadows and welcome to WebProworld !

Corey Bryant pretty much summed it up.

You would be wise not to even bother looking at free hosts, especially if you're serious about an online presence. Headaches for sure
And for what you're looking for, you probably won't find it.

Default Great Short Term Solution

Take a look at 1and1.com, I have migrated a couple of sites to their network and I have yet to have any problems. There is no cost for 4 years and you can cancel anytime.

Another company that provides great and inexpensive webhosting solutions is Tera Byte Dot Com Inc., www.tera-byte.com.

Good luck.
