The main reasons are safety, convenience and ease of handling. If you have test tubes with toxic or corrosive or flammable chemicals in, they need to be stood up. Test tubes will not stand up by themselves. A test tube rack is a convenient way of keeping a number of test tubes together especially if you are doing one large experiment.
