Microsoft offers free, limited trial instances of Windows 10 directly from their dev center for a few different Hypervisors
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/ They run for 90 days before expiring. They can last considerably longer of you employ snapshotting as part of your development process. 

Windows Server is another issue. The short answer is:

1. You will have to build it yourself
2. Use vagrant to provision a Windows Server in Azure, AWS or GCP for a fee
