You can download the express edition for free. Its fully functional, just as good as their enterprise versions, except the advanced features are not supported.

There really is no "best". Microsoft's SQL Server basically works out of the box I believe. But all others are pretty much compatible.
I personally always suggest MySQL/MariaDB. Very configurable (Note that this is a good AND bad thing) MSSQL is good but It just not 100% free nor open source.
