Apps downloadable from the Galaxy Store can be deleted, but Samsung Free is a preloaded application that is default-located on the home screen of Galaxy devices and thus CANNOT be deleted. The Samsung Free application in the Galaxy Store is for the app update not for new installation. If you want, you may choose to disable the service.
