There is no way to advise him on what he should plea without knowing the facts of the case. He is entitled to a lawyer and should talk with one. His bond amount indicates this bond is set so high because he may have missed a court date. With no previous record he probably has a number of options available including potential diversion, probation, or possibly time served.
