It is available as Jigdo files:

  https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/7.9.0/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-7.9.0-amd64-netinst.jigdo
  https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/7.9.0/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-7.9.0-amd64-netinst.template

(Replace "amd64" by "i386", "armel", "s390", etc. as needed.)

Not so long ago, i tested the Jigdo download procedure as of these three
consequtive paragraphs:
  https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive#Install_package_jigdo-file
  https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive#If_needed.2C_work_around_a_shortcoming_of_older_jigdo-lite
  https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive#Download_one_or_more_Jigdo_ISOs

The Jigdo file tells jigdo-lite to look for the packages of the netinst ISO
on
  http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20150905T143449Z/
  http://us.cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/snapshot/Debian/
So they must be reachable.

Although there are ready-to-use .iso files, which spares the run of
jigdo-lite, i dimly remember that the Live ISOs had a time range when
they messed up installations. Dunno whether 7.9.0 was affected.


Have a nice day :)
