Default Front left brake(I think) is whining, make it stop!

So I have a 1993 s10 Blazer Tahoe LT edition 4 door 4x4, and when I have the car turned off or leave it parked for a bit and take off it starts whining from the front driver side which is extremely annoying. If I get going fast enough and push the brakes relatively hard then it stops, although it does start again sometimes if I hit a bump or something. My question is am I right in assuming it is a stuck caliper or something is caught in it? I was told it could be a wheel bearing but it doesn't make sense to me that hitting the breaks would stop it. I can't pull the tire and wheel off to look at it until my friend gets his jeep out of my shop so I thought I would get your opinion. Thank you
