Hell wasn't created for us, it was made for the fallen angels.
God created mankind with a free will, if there isn't a bad option, we couldn't exercise our free will, and there would be no difference to not having a free will.
It is up to you to follow God and live, or follow flesh and die. God is perfect, anything less cannot live with Him, therefore if you choose sin, you cannot be with God in Heaven.

Much more concise than how I was trying to type it out. Have my meaningless points.
Angels are different than humans, they made their choice once and for all. Humans choose and re-choose throughout their lives, we do thinks we kind of want to do but don't really want to do (think getting in an angry argument and saying things you regret) in part because our emotions get the best of us. Angels and fallen angels are spirit, they don't have hormones or things like that and their knowledge is of a higher degree and their will is stronger. So angels made a deliberate, knowing, decision for or against God and that decision is final.
Those who are in heaven will become perfected just as Jesus was at his resurrection. It will be Impossible for people to sin, just as the holy angels have the ability but choose not to sin because they are in the direct presence of God and all His glory.
I read up on this further and realized what I was recalling came from Job, but at the end of Job we realize that particular argument was wrong. Thanks for prodding me to do some digging.
From what I read, we'll still have free will in heaven but no desire to sin, so that fight we battle here on earth will be lifted.

At the same times even the angels in Heaven aren't perfect. And we won't be either if we get there, right?
