The value of HTTP::host does not include the protocol specifier. This should work for you.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [HTTP::host] eq "domain.com" } {
    HTTP::redirect "https://www.domain.com[HTTP::uri]"
  }
}

The only issue you need to be aware of with redirects is that you don't to get into a infinite loop where you keep redirecting to the same iRule recursively.

Theoretically it's best practice to create separate virtuals for each port (80 and 443). This will also help avoid recursive redirection.
