One of the free option to host a files is by using Google Code. Google Code runs a Project Hosting service that provides revision control offering Subversion, Mercurial and Git, an issue tracker, a wiki for documentation, and a file download feature. This means, with the 200MB file limit, you can upload any file, JavaScript, Image, Video, CSS, Documents etc with no restriction.
You must know that Google Code Project Hosting is a shared hosting rather than regular web hosting services. So all projects hosted on Google Code are Open Source, and are available for anyone to view or download. Various Licenses are used for the files served by Project Hosting including GNU General Public License (GPL), MIT License etc.
