Hi Maryam ,
I used Modeller 8v1

The Modeller Home Page :
http://salilab.org/index.html

The Documentation is here :
http://salilab.org/modeller/documentation.html

The FAQ archive is here :
http://salilab.org/archives/modeller usage/

The models can be viewed by any program that reads the PDB format, such as 
Chimera , Rasmol , SwissPdbViewer etc

This is a command line program free for academic use
It works very beautifully
If your problem is not too big than you can use their webinterface

There is also a commercial version with a windows GUI
