Hi Lance,
There is free software that does all this at
https://biostatistics.mdanderson.org/SoftwareDownload/The program is called RANLIST. It is old DOS software but it will store your parameter file and will generate a list is a text file that you can manipulate as needed for loading it into whatever interface you need. When block sizes are large enough, it also does a good job at balancing across strata, not just within - which I haven't seen in any other programs.
You just need to get a DOS command window open and follow the instruction manual.
Would love to hear if you find a free software that does this in a more modern platform.

Subject: Software for stratified randomization lists
Hello. Does anyone know of any free program(s) to generate randomization lists (i.e., treatment assignment sequences), one list for each stratum ? The program would need to incorporate random permuted blocks in each list, ideally, allowing for either fixed block sizes or variable block sizes. Help, please. Thank you.
