I suspect you're using 000webhost's free plan, which does not support remote MySQL connections. Their paid accounts do:

How can I connect to MySQL from my computer?

Remote MySQL connections are disabled for security and server performance reasons.

However remote MySQL connections will be enabled if you upgrade your account
