Quick fix on brake problem

Hi there, i have a problem with my rear brakes sticking. I know what the cause is etc but i am over 100 miles away from home. The things is my back driver side brake is sticking and causing alot of noise. I have new parts at home but am not wanting to pay extra just to get them fixed away from home.
Is there a quick fix to this problem?
I was thinking remove the pipe leading to that caliper and sticking something inside the same diameter and then put a clamp around it to stop any leaking so that would mean i still have 3 brakes and it would wear out the noise its causing. Would this work for a temp fix till i get home?

Any quick fix would be fantastic guys cheers

If only one line is blocked to stop that caliper from working that should safe enough if i am right. Just have to be more careful on braking when driving but i would like to know for defo that this will work.
If you think about the caliper need pressure to work and the fluid does not recycle itself so blocking it makes sence to stop the noise its causing.

Am i right people?

Dont do that, just drive however far you need to go and fix it, or better yet, tow it. But if you undo that and dont cap it correctly itn will drain your fluid.
