Answer:
Basically, it's simply part of the male body waking up. As you wake up, your body is flooded with hormones and chemicals. Part of this process causes your blood flow to increase to the penis causing an erection. It is perfectly normal and healthy. Although, if it is persistent, meaning it lasts for a long time, have your doctor check you out.
