Responding to Recruiter

I was contacted by a recruiter recently looking to fill a position. They're from a bigger company in AM. I'm not interested in the job the recruiter approached about (mainly because it's not the role I want). But I also want to keep good relations since I'm relatively junior and the industry within AM I'm in isn't that big, and there's not a lot of qualified people to fill positions within it. It's very possible I could be interested in a job this company has in the future.

I've seen a couple of broad threads about how to respond to recruiters, but I'm looking for feedback specifically for my scenario above. How do I politely decline but also try and keep my name in the recruiter's head for the future?
