What about using Code Anywhere?

https://codeanywhere.com/

They have a free hosting option that can also drag/drop data from DropBox and a Google Drive, though content hosting can only be done from the sandbox server they create for you as part of your account. The integrated web-based HTML editor is not that bad to work with.

I've never done this, but I've heard you can use DropBox in an unofficial capacity to host basic pages too:
