You can get both free domain name and free web space on internet. If you want to run your personal website then free domain name and free web space is the best option for you.
After the evolution of web 2.0 there are enormous websites which provide you their server and subdomain to run your personal web pages in the form of blog usually.

All these above-mentioned hosting provides free database and php script support. Generally free hosting sites provide you subdomain name like yourname.sitename.com But it is quite difficult to remember such large names. So you should then go for url redirection.
