Alas there is no such thing. If you do not need the newest version of AIX for your application you might consider buying an (older) AIX machine second-hand. There are regularly smaller machines offered which won't cost you an arm and a leg.
The OS license is usually sold with the machine but you would still need the xlC compiler from IBM to build for the AIX platform. There is a gcc compiler for AIX available but to build reliable software it is usually better to rely on the vendors "official" compiler.
I hope this helps.
