There is gravity in space but the farther you get from massive objects the less you feel it. Gravity is a weak force but cumulatively it can be powerful when near massive objects.  Since you don't experience nearly as much gravity in space as on Earth we say it's zero gravity. It's kind of like saying space is a vacuum. It's not a perfect vacuum but there is so little matter that it's easier just to call it one.
