If the quotient of an algebraic space $X$ by a finite group is a scheme, is $X$ a scheme?

If the quotient of an algebraic space $X$ by a finite group $G$ is a scheme, is $X$ already a scheme? Here $G$ is just a finite group, but I'd like to know the answer when $X$ is defined over Spec(Z).

Is this at least true if $G$ acts freely?
