You are out of luck on multiple levels:

1. A valid Windows 7 Ultimate does include Bitlocker. That is probably it's only advantage over Win 7 Pro.
2. So, as you say, it is probably a pirated version. Only you know where you got it from.
3. But as it is probably pirated, we can not and will not assist with it in here.
Obtain a valid copy, and then we'll see.
