I am not sure whether anyone is providing free hosting service for ASP.Net and MS SQL server? I have a few pet projects and will love to see them go live. I don't mind if there is any bandwidth or other limitatino

A: 

Take a look at http://www.aspspider.com/.

According to their site, they offer:

Web hosting package for ASP.NET programmers:

  • Free hosting with ASP.NET 2.0.
  • SQL Server 2005 Express.
  • MS Access support.
  • Up to 100 MB disk space.
  • 2 GB monthly data transfer.
  • Your own domain name.

You have to register, and it is not guaranteed that they will let you have a spot on one of their servers. I haven't used them myself, so proceed at your own risk. But if it is not anything important, it should work fine.

The only other one that actually looks "free" and isn't just a long trial period appears to be: http://asphost4free.com/

It's only for 90 days: http://www.aspspider.com/tips/Tip22.aspx

If it's only for your personal projects like the question asks, re-uploading them after 90 days should be no problem.

Check out the Web Hosting Talk forum. You can get the scoop on customer service, up times and ease-of-use from actual users. I could post some out of date experiances I have had, but you're better served checking the forum.

It's not free, but a one-time $1.66 setup fee with no monthly payments is as good as you can get:

  • 100 MB of ASP.NET 3.1 SP1 on Windows Server 2008 R2 IIS7.5
  • 15 MB of SQL Server 2008
  • ?? MB of mySQL 5.1
  • 1000 MB of bandwidth
