I have recently started using jenkins as a CI server. Is there a free jenkins hosting service? I made a searched on Google, but unfortunately didn't find anything.

Jenkins is absolutely free i.e open-source tool and helps in automating all kinds of tasks associated with the building, testing, delivering and deploying an application. Jenkins can be installed through system packages provided or can run alone provided JRE is installed in the machine.
Jenkins is typically run as a standalone application in its own process with the built-in Java servlet container/application server (Jetty). Jenkins can also be run as a servlet in different Java servlet containers such as Apache Tomcat or GlassFish.
Jenkins is self hosted, the reason why many developers still prefer using it. One advantage of a self hosted platform is that it allows you to upgrade and control the platform as per your own needs.
Consider a service like travis-ci, which is free for opensource projects. They also offer an enterprise service.
There is also CircleCI, also with an enterprise service.

You can run it locally, especially, it would be easier to run it as a container. Please see this link: https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/docker/
