Your solution is linode.com. They are using UML which allow you to have your own instance of Linux within their Linux server. They have UMLs for Redhat, Fedora, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, etc. Because its UML you have root access and you can install anything you want. This is a very good way to practice administering a real server.
