"now free" and "free now' are not the same. According to the linguistic, it should be "now free" the word now' is an adverb of time.

@All.
I am free now.
Now I am free.
Both sentences are correct and can be used in a similar manner and in place of the other. But, when we observe it minutely, we see a subtle but great difference. "I am free now' means something like, "I am currently free but I will have to get back to work later. So, if there is something extra which needs to be attended to, I can do it now'. Now, "Now I am free' is very definitive and lofty. It indicates that now that something big/monumental has happened, I am (finally) free. Say, I got rid of guilt by performing an act of charity and now my conscience is clear or may be I achieved personal liberty which I did not have before.
