A magnetoresistance effect element having a free magnetic layer is provided. The free magnetic layer is formed in a laminate including a fixed magnetization layer having a fixed magnetization direction, a non-magnetic layer formed on the fixed magnetization layer, a first ferromagnetic layer, a non-magnetic metallic layer formed on the first ferromagnetic layer, and a second ferromagnetic layer formed on the non-magnetic metallic layer. The free magnetic layer includes magnetic recording regions, and in each region, the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer are coupled such that their magnetization directions are anti-parallel with each other, and one of the magnetic recording regions is opposite to the fixed magnetization layer with the non-magnetic layer therebetween.
