No, there isn't a free winrar. There are, however, a couple of free programs that extract rar files. The one I use is called 7-zip, it doesn't make rar files but it extracts them, and can make zip files a little smaller than the default windows extractor.

Eh, what's the problem with WinRAR anyways? It's unlimited shareware. After 30 days, it will always pop up a box at start asking you to register, but you can click OK in 2 seconds and the box vanishes until the next time you open the program. And it's not crippleware; even after the 30 days, it's fully-functional.

I use AlZip. It opens and zips files in RAR, ZIP, and more.

WinRAR seems to have good file format support. It's also easy to configure the default unzip directory with, and its interface isn't uber-stripped down like 7Zip's is.
