Got it working with this:

appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules /+"[name='http_redirect',enabled='True']" /commit:apphost

appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'] /match.url:"(.*)" /match.ignoreCase:true /commit:apphost

appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'].conditions/add /+"[input='{HTTPS}',pattern='off']" /commit:apphost

appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/rewrite/rules.[name='http_redirect'].action /+"[type='Redirect',url='https://{HOST_NAME}/{R:1}',redirectType='Found']" /commit:apphost
