Which is the most reliable free antivirus for USB flash drives that resides and runs from the device itself and doesn't need to be installed on the computer?

You could have a look at ESET. It requires a minimum of installation and is very effective, but I don't know if it can work from a USB drive.

I use it online from time to time to make a second sweep for any malware that my installed antivirus might have missed.
