It's packaged for Fedora, but seems to be languishing[1] :/ . As for Kotlin, I'm a big fan of explicit nullables.

Just download it from their site. It's not hard to setup (just un-tar it and run idea.sh).

Yeah, I really like the explicit nullable ('Maybe' monad from Haskell!), it's much nicer to use than Scala's clusterf#$k with Options. Besides, Kotlin developers are now busy annotating the standard library with nullables.
