hi,
Redhat Enterprise Linux(EL) is free if u do not want
support services from redhat.
Redhat does not provide .iso images for EL, u have
download the source rpms and rebuild the entire EL
operating system.
references:
for downloading
http://ftp.redhat.com
EL rebuilding mini-howto
http://www2.uibk.ac.at/zid/software/unix/linux/rhel-rebuild.htm
if u do not want to compile then download derived EL
distributions like whitebox linux
(http://whiteboxlinux.org/), centos
(http://www.centos.org/), etc.
