Out of state job interview… what do I tell my boss?

I have an out of state job interview and want some advice on wether or not I should be upfront with my boss and let him know I have an interview and thats why I need to take a day off or if I should just come up with some BS lie? 

Other thing is my new contract is about to roll out at my current spot and I will in turn have a non-compete.
