CGI/PHP/mod_perl/mod_python et al. Pretty much anything will do what you
want.

GeekISP is not free, but they are inexpensive (starting at $5/month) and
they have all the requisite open source software tools available.

(Full disclosure: I've been hosting a bunch of sites with them and am a
happy customer.)
