I want to practice SQL commands on Ubuntu. I would just like to play with different commands and keywords. Where can I find something that helps?
I don't want to install any server. I need a small app; something less than 20MB.

If you want to play around with a lightweight SQL RDBMS, SQLite (Ubuntu package) is the standard choice. You have multiple options to use SQLite:
You can use the SQLite program directly from the command line by running
sqlite3 /some/database/file.sqlite
Type commands and press Enter (remember the trailing semicolon).
Alternatively, you can install sqliteman, which provides a nice GUI browser for SQLite databases; you can also enter SQL code and execute it (displaying the results in the GUI):
Install via terminal:
sudo apt-get install sqliteman
Or:
Be aware that SQLite takes some unusual design decisions for an RDBMS:
CHECK
constraints.
