This is a billing question which is mentioned in the FAQ for Free Trial - the charge is a charge used to authorize your account, even though you won't be billed until you enable billing properly and begin using resources beyond your free trial period and amount of $300. All of this information is current as of the date of this posting:

Why do I see an authorization from Google on my credit or debit card statement?
You might notice a $0.00 transaction from Google, which is a pending authorization request between our billing system and the bank that issued your credit or debit card. In some countries, authorizations are $1 (which might be converted to local currency by your bank). These transactions might appear as pending on your statement for up to a month. Please keep in mind they are authorization requests only, not actual charges. If you have questions, we recommend you contact your bank about the authorization status
