You can get the API key from the following link. Go through the link and you need to enter a project and so on. But it is easy. Hassle free.

Once you get the API key change the previous

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js"></script>

to

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?libraries=places&key=your_api_key_here"></script>
