This normally happens if you are with a non-reliable or fly-by-night kind of host. There should be no problem having your domain with your host otherwise. When you register yur domain, you should be the registrant of the domain.
Free domains given by host are mor likely a problem. Sometimes these free domains are registered under the host's name, not yours, since they will say you didn't pay for it anyway. Then if you cancel your hosting account, you may not get that domain back. Or they will give you a free domain for a year, then charge you a higher price for renewal.
