It isn't against the Bible to say the first day was not 24 hours long. It never says 24 hours nor would it make sense to. Why would God create the time frame for a day before making the definition of a day?

The story even says that God created day and night before he created the Sun and the stars in the sky. None of it makes sense.

Plus, Jesus spoke using many allegories and metaphors, why is it impossible that this isn't one?

There's no reason you can't say that. But isn't it much more likely that it's simply a story designed to answer questions that couldn't be answered at the time of their origin?
