PostgreSQL is released under the BSD license which means you can do
whatever you like with it, even embed it in a commercial project.
Stored procedures are supported, in several languages: PL/pgSQL, PL/Tcl,
PL/Perl, and PL/Python. See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&file=programmer-pl.html
for more info.
