When the planet was molten all the heavy elements in it sank to the core (centre). these elements included allot of heavy radioactive elements and it is the heat produced by the radioactive decay of these that has kept the centre of the Earth hot.

Some of the core's heat comes from the breakdown of radioactive atoms. Much of the heat energy is left over from when Earth first formed.
