Fog Creek has a product called Kiln, which is like Github, but is based on Mercurial. It's very polished and has lots of great features that focus on private repository management (but has public repos, too).

It's free for up to 2 users. Unlimited repos and disk space.

Yes, but if you're solo freelancer or student, you can't beat it.
