I have to admit that I am not sure how you ripped your biceps doing the bench press, and so it may just be an anomoly in your physique. However, if you do think you ripped it, I would probably go to my physician and ask them to look at it. To answer you question though, an actual rip in muscle (usually at a tendon) does take a while to heal, and you should not work it until you have it checked.

Keep us updated, and good luck
