It is really difficult to know what the problem could be but in all likelihood it is nothing major to worry about.
Get a bag of frozen peas (or similar) and place it on the affected knee for about 10 minutes and repeat that 3 or 4 times separated by an hour or so, if you can.
See how things are tomorrow.

There are some stretches on the NHS site to do after a run - they don't take long and should help to keep the aches and pains away. Dunder's advice re icing it sounds good.
Hope it feels better soon!
