Ask HN: Optimal cloud service to run tiny website with back end Python + SQLite?

Web ninjas: What is your go-to cloud service for running a small website served with python + jinja2 + sqlite? The website does little besides searching an sqlite table, serving a form, and writing the form response to an sqlite table, all with minimal computation and bandwidth. Wants are:

  Low price
  Low maintenance time/cost
  Simplicity
My strengths do not include web development/servers but I know the basics. I'm particularly interested in the gotchas like: difficulties setting up SSL, transfer limits, and "X is perfect except that ____".

If I'm asking the wrong question or not providing enough info, please say so.
