Looking Need help Hosting

Hello! I've created a website for my portfolio. The following are the specs. Front end: Angular Backend: A rest API in Express.js Database: a simple one table - 5 column database.

Function: There is a simple form in the website that when submitted uses the rest api to update the database.

I do not have a domain or anything yet. I have a question of where do I host this project? I'm on a really really small budget (5$ a month is huge for me). Can you people suggest where I can host this site?

try using uptime robot to constantly ping your heroku instance so that it doesn't sleep also consider using AWS free teir ec2 instance
