You can use Wordpress.com for free and you don't require a server to host it on, although many features you will have to pay for. Wordpress downloaded from wordpress.org is completely free but you have to host it on your own server.

You can use wordpress.com (free) but also you can use localhost (your PC or MAC) or a hosting service (commercial or free) with MySQL and PHP support. Exist a lot of alternatives.
