I can find no evidence of this on the internet. Prisons certainly ban books but I do not think they do of the bible. Could your friend be lying?
The banning of books in prison is legal though often antiquated. (For example, once a book is banned it stays there long after the perceived risk has faded.) They are permitted to do so to exercise control over the inmates, keep order, prevent them from learning new methods of escape and so on. Inmates do not have the same rights.
