I want to make my IntelliJ use these settings by default, because we always push to refs/for/[branch] but I can't seem to find any info on how to do that. Does any one know if there is a way to do that?

There is not. I recommend you vote for and watch the Git Push dialog does not remember remote branch feature request.
In the meantime, as a workaround, you could record a macro (Edit > Macros) to issue the Alt+B key sequence to select the option and then enter your branch name. The map the macro to a shortcut (Settings > [IDE Settings] > Keymap > Macros > ${yourMacro}) You could even put the opening of the push dialog in the beginning of the macro so a single key mapping would open the dialog and set the alternative branch.
