What is the meaning of free falling and how is it related to force?

Free falling isn't actually related to force, when you free fall you are falling because of gravity, gravity is one of the four known forces, but gravity is simply the warping of the fabric of space and time, you fall because the earth streches that fabric, and you fall or sink into it, like a bowling ball on a trampoline. There are no forces acting on you, rather you are simply moving with the fabric which you exist in, which has been warped by the force of gravity. Free Fall is where an object whose motion is due to gravity ALONE.
