Both of them are correct: It's just that one is more formal than the other.
"He was released from the prison."
This is more formal, which you would use if you were writing a formal email or talking to someone you didn't know
"He was released from prison."
This is more informal, which you would use if you were talking to a friend or texting someone you know.
