Why didnt they terraform a planet in the Solar system?

The story is strongly anthropomorphic. So they chose a planet which already had conditions as similar as possible to earth, so our kind of people-dominated ecosystem could be established and maintained. Otherwise they might have created a home planet for who-knows-what kind of space beasties! Of course, that could provide several possibilities for sequels, but that was not the master plan.
 
Instead of going to Ceti Alpha 5 where Khan could kidnap them and go on the warpath?
Well it would still be a prison colony. And in that case, Star Trek: The Rape of Khan might not have done so well in the box office.
