Servers cost money, nothing can change that. But you could use a computer at home thats running all the time and then use a dynamic dns service (there are free ones) to access your home server from everywhere. That way you've got the electricity cost of an always running computer, so it's not entirely free either. Maybe use a sbc like raspberrypi, bananapi, odroid or the like, these are very efficient.
If you consider using a paid VPS instead, I can recommend contabo, since they are very affordable and work like a charm, e.g. the 200GB SSD variant for 4,50€/month: https://contabo.com/de/vps/
@words_number it seems the 200GB one costs 17,49€ a month, though.

No, for the 4,50€ one you can choose betseen either 50GB extra fast NVMe storage or 200GB SATA SSD storage, which should be fine for a private nextcloud.
