technically you own it, but its hard to feel ownership in cyberland. Sometimes freebie ones remain the property of the owning hoster.
Best way is to check is to go to
Whois lookup and Domain name search and enter your URL, then look at the owner. If its yours, it will be registered under your name/company.
eg
Registrant:
Lowi Ltd
My Local Services; 50 High Street
Henley in Arden
Henley in Arden, B95 5AN
GB
Domain name: MYLOCALFORUMS.COM
