Hi,

First of all I want to get a ownCloud server that is hosted somewhere. Can anyone recommend me a freely available ownCloud server?

https://owncloud.org/providers/ has some free hosting plans.

I want to add new features to the ownCloud specially to it's storage & syncing functionalities. Can anyone suggest me a place to find currently available features

A features overview is available here https://owncloud.org/features/. You most likely will find additional info / documentation at https://doc.owncloud.org

How to set up the code base to start developement

Development documentation is available here:

https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.2/developer_manual/

If you want to develop code, you probably don't want to use a service that manages the cloud for you. For development it is the best to use a local webserver or a virtual machine.
