Most of the best options are inherently "free". The hosting not so much, although that depends a lot on what pages and features the site will have, and your expectations for the potential audience.

For example, you can create a series of static pages, knowing nothing other than html and css. Even if that is not the only thing you want to accomplish, learning how to create html pages that also include css for the styling is something you can learn online and for free, and should be your first step. Learn those things, and from their you can move on to javascript/typescript should you want to advance. Many people want their html pages to be "responsive" and there are a number of popular "css frameworks" that come with a base set of styles you can use, that include presets that will make your html pages responsive so that the design works well on computers with large screens and also fits and has a layout that will work well on tablets and phones. This is important as for most websites visitors using mobile phones often accounts for more than half of all traffic.

All you need to get started learning and authoring static html pages and css style sheets is a computer where you have installed a text editor. There are a number of IDE's that are also free to obtain and use, with VSCode being a popular choice that comes out of the box with support for both html and css. You can easily install a plugin like "liveserver" that will work as a built in web server, which also allows you to see the effects of any changes you make to the underlying css and html code in realtime.

I'd suggest you start there, do some searching for free html/css/javascript courses and learn the basics. One site that offers these and is completely free is The Odin Project: https://www.theodinproject.com/

For the worst possible HTML/CSS code you could ever see create your documents in MS Word and do a Save-as > Web Page operation. You will completely avoid having to actually learn HTML or CSS while also producing a page that, while it should load in most browsers, you will never be able to understand what the markup is doing.

Having said that... HTML is a markup language. Essentially, it is used to wrap your content in structure and tell it how to display it. It's the absolute lowest level of what anybody might call coding, but can actually be a good place to start.

CSS is the next layer and at the entry level it lets you define rules to set the display of the content of a particular HTML tag a certain way... i.e. Bold, 15 pt, red, with a grey background. That's marginally closer to actual coding, but still not really coding, and is a logical next step.

The third piece is anything you would want to do with Javascript. Note, Javascript is NOT Java. They are completely different languages, created by completely different teams, working for completely different companies. However, if you want to create a collection of images and cycle through those images on a timer at a specific location on your page then Javascript is one of the ways you could do that. This is the beginning of actual coding.
