My answer to What’s the cheapest or free stack solution to deploy and experiment with a realtime application in 2016? on Quora
Heroku have a good free tier, and comprehensive support for deploying both Python and Node.js. If you are mainly interested in realtime I would suggest starting out with Node.js on Heroku. Depending on the complexity of your project you might even be able to use raw Node.js without adding something like Express.
