As I recall, the problem with Amazon freebies and self-publishing is that once you set a book up, you can change the price but not add or remove one. That is, you can't change it from free to not-free (or vice versa) unless you use KDP Select, which requires exclusivity. There are several other Select-only marketing tools, like being able to schedule discounts, but that's the biggie.
You can change your price from $0.99 up to $200.00 any time you want. There is no changing from free to not-free because you can't set it free to begin with.

The price you choose may change your royalty option depending how you've selected things. To get 70% you have to price between $2.99 and $9.99. For the 35% option you can price between $0.99 and $200.00 (less than 3MB file), $1.99 and $200.00 (3MB to 10MB file) or between $2.99 and $200.00 (10MB or more).

The only options for doing free at Amazon with KDP is if your book is in KDP Select which allows 5 days of free for every 90 days in the program or to set it free elsewhere and get them to price match.
