Quite simply, I'd just like to modify the right command key to escape and that's it. Keep the left command key as is.

The only tool I've been able to find for this is ControllerMate but I'd rather not pay $14 to map one key.

Can anyone suggest a free alternative?

You can download Ukelele. It is an free keyboard layout editor, and you can make a new layout for your keyboard where simple redefine the keys. In the package are sample keyboards and a manual/tutorial too.

I have no idea how to use this application. Each time I press the right command key, the left one lights up on it's keyboard mapper. And also, browsing the comments the author mentions that you can't differentiate between the different command keys (in ukelele). – Matt Jun 12 '11 at 11:09
So, my answer was not helpful. I know no other way, sry. – jm666 Jun 12 '11 at 11:38
