Public DBFS root is disabled in Databricks free edition

I am using notebook to execute a sample spark to write delta table in dbfs using free edition. However, I face an issue, that I can not access the public DBFS after the code executed.

The spark code such as:

data = spark.range(0, 5)
data.write.format("delta").save("/tmp/delta-table")

This is the log error:

Public DBFS root is disabled. Access is denied on path: /tmp/delta-table/_delta_log
