They gave it to you free for a reason. Shame on them.
 
Yep, Brown Button palythoa/ zoanthid. Good for a first beginner coral, but be aware that it will slowly and then quickly take over any solid surface it touches. Try to keep it separated from your larger pieces of rock so that it won't spread as easy.
 
It's gonna be difficult to keep it away from other rocks it's in a 10 gallon tank
