The applet will execute on the client browser.
Its doubtful/unlikely that your free hosting provider allows remote mysql connections.
So your best bet would be some sort of HTTP web service.
If you can use Java on the server then check out CXF.
If you can only use PHP then things are tougher but look at NuSOAP.
On your applet you can use CXF to consume the service.
