AOMEI and Macrium Reflect are best free backup programs.

Thanks for the advice guys, I give these a try. But I was also wondering if it's better to clone or create an image of the drive? Plus does using the computer like browsing online etc effect the process of cloning or imaging?

No it does not affect during imagin process. I have stored images on my secondary partition which i recommend . Anyway make sure you made bootable media in case your PC gets messed up badly.

Clone is good if you are cloning to a new bigger hard drive. Backup image is great for regular backups.
Try and store your backup images on a separate hard drive and not a second partition.
