I have the actual answer this time! Very confident. You are
Terminus
Explanation:
I am after and before
A terminus is the beginning or end of something
I am the god who said no more
Terminus declares "no more" in Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem of the same name.
A fraudulent rose, now set free
The hacker Terminus, whose real name was Leonard Rose, was imprisoned for wire fraud for a year and a day.
The foundation sat upon me
In Isaac Asimov's Foundation series, the Foundation is built on the planet Terminus at the edge of the galaxy.
Excellent riddle.
I refuse to move, though I'm casually roaming
Terminus, as a god of boundary stones, forbade the removal of his marker from the future site if the temple of Jupiter. He was also a Roman god, and "casually roaming"="roamin".
Terrible guess: you are
Peter
Reasoning:
After and before: Peter can appear as a first or last name (both real and fictional people are named Peter Peter, even). Said no more: Peter Parker renounced his godhood and said he'd be Spiderman no more. A fraudulent rose, now set free: Peter "Pete" Rose, the baseball player, was imprisoned for tax fraud but is now set free. The foundation sat upon me: Matthew 16:18
