You don't have a computer that you can develop on at all? How are you writing this email? Developing over ssh is going to be a huge pain.
Now, you *maybe* can use the runserver command - if you do add the --help switch it will tell you how to run it to bind to a particular interface and port. It maybe that you can bind it to a port on the localhost interface (and then tunnel that over ssh), or you may be able to have your host allocate you specific ports which you can use to run any kind of web server you like. While runserver shouldn't be used for production, I have used it to diagnose specific problems in the production environment, which inevitably will differ from development when using a shared host. This is, of course, fairly insecure, and could even be illegal depending on your data protection obligations.
