Please help.

It is indeed possible to import a course export package from another user into a Free For Teachers (FFT) account. However, the course quota for FFT accounts is 500MB, so if the course package you're attempting to import is larger than that, the import will fail.
Many users opt to import the course into a course shell provided by their school or district that has a larger storage quota; they then edit the course content to remove the most egregious data consumers (that's usually media files) to reduce its size.
You'll find more information about what is available in paid and free accounts respectively in the Canvas Account Comparisons PDF
