Try these guys [if you don't mind a .cc name].
http://www.000webhost.com
They offer 2 x free MySQL databases (you need 1x for Wordpress).
Don't know anything else about them but my son uses them and doesn't
seem to have problems.

+1 for Wordpress-formatted blogs. Plenty of free [well supported] themes
and most of them are pretty configurable.
If you have your own domain and download Wordpress, it is very easy to
set up and use. Your ISP will have to supply a backend database as part
of your hosting account. Importantly, backup of your blog content is
well documented. Upgrade of the Wordpress software is also in place and
pretty straightforward.

To start, use some free online blogging sites to see if you like it
without having to get into hosting and costs. Two biggies in my mind
are: wordpress.com<http://wordpress.com/>, blogger.com
<http://blogger.com/>, etc.
Personally, I prefer Wordpress-based blogs. It has a nice feel and is
very easy to extend functionality and maintain.
