You can redirect to the same host and URI that the client requested:

http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/HTTPToHTTPSRedirect_302.html 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  
     Check if Host header value has a length 
    if {[string length [HTTP::host]]}{ 
  
        Redirect to the requested host and URI (minus the port if specified) 
       HTTP::redirect https://[getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 1][HTTP::uri] 
  
    } else { 
  
        Redirect to VIP's IP address 
       HTTP::redirect https://[IP::local_addr][HTTP::uri] 
    } 
 }
