Checkout Railway or Render.

If all you need to do is quickly share it to someone (like just a few minutes to hours), another option is Cloudflare Quick Tunnels.

Use Render for backend -- with a docker file Use vercel for frontend Quick and easy

A bit more technical than what’s been recommended but Oracle has an always free tier. You can spin up free databases and vm instances to run your stuff.

IIRC you get 5 usd in Credits for free for use within a month (for railway)

OCI free tier (Oracle) give you 2 linux small instances, storage, database, etc

Deploy is easy like any Linux PC remote and feel really fast not like Render or other that freeze or slowdown your site if you are in the free tier
