If I was to uninstall a free trial, would I be able to claim the remaining days if I install it again later?

This may be confusing to explain, but I shall try.

If I accidentally installed a free trial of a program too early, when I don't yet need it, but I'd like to use the trial later when I need it, would I be able to uninstall the trial at 3 days for example and then about a week or so later, claim the remaining 4 days of the trial when I reinstall it?

As far as I know... no

Trials are one time only on a computer

You would need to completely wipe your hard drive to get rid of the hidden file to then allow a new trial

I have just tested uninstalling it, however it still claims I can "Try" it.

Does this mean the trial will continue even though I no longer have the app?

Or does it mean I can continue the trial at a later date?

Depends on whether you launched it after installing.

The trial clock usually starts counting down when you first launch it.

If you launch it, use it for 3 days then don't use it again, you don't get any further trial days on that computer.

You'd either have to re-format the computer or use a different one.

Just go to C:\Program Files (x86) or C:\Program Files then search "Adobe" then delete anything folder containing that trial stuff.
