The best way to tell a boy you don't want to date him but wish to remain friend is: Tell him you see him more like a brother than just a friend. Someone that you can confide in and look to for protection. To date him would feel like incest.
If that doesn't hit him like a cold shower then you will have to be brutally honest and tell him you just don't want to go out with him.
I believe telling him you see him more like a brother will work well. It is something he can understand and you are honoring your friendship at the same time as telling him you two just can't date because of how your feelings are for him.

Be honest with him, If you two are best friends you shouldn't have a problem letting him know how you feel. If you feel you need to be more blunt about it you could tell him "I don't want to lead you on but I really value our friendship to much to make it into something more and I would feel more comfortable if we were friends" That isn't to harsh but it's pretty much to the point.
