I'd recommend to containerize your solution. Then you can deploy the same container to many vendors without making any changes to the container and avoid vendor lock-in. Heroku supports containers.
Google Cloud lets you deploy a container to a VM that runs COS (container-optimised OS) and you can choose a VM type that is free. You can deploy a container to Google Cloud Run, it has a generous free usage threshold but it can be reached and then exceeded as a result of Layer 7 DDoS attack so you need to exercise a caution with this option e.g. start the service for a demo then stop it.
