Regarding placements, I am not aware of any UK institution that guarantees placements/internships either during or after the LLM. As regards international human rights law, I know the LLM programme at Essex encourages its students to undertake internships during the LLM and possibly therefore has information to facilitate that process. This it has to be said is different from providing the placement. Other institutions may do likewise. The only other reference I have seen to internships has been from Prof Alan Riley at City University who has, according to some of his posts here, arranged some. How the system at City works I don't know, but you could maybe get more information from him.
As regards entry standards, most UK institutions state that they require a minimum of a 2,1 (60%) or equivalent. Some posts have suggested that some institutions will go lower, whilst Oxford, Cambridge and LSE might have stricter requirements. As a general rule, I don't see what anyone has to lose by applying, unless there are significant administration fees. Otherwise, the worst that can happen is that an institution says 'no'.

hey,
if i were you, i would definitely try oxford and LSE (and a couple of others just in case). It depends on how many people in average get a first in your institution. If it's less than 10%, and you get a first, apply to oxford and LSE (amongst others), maybe it will work out.
good luck
