You could put something like this on the checkout page:

[if type=explicit compare="[calc][subtotal noformat=1] < 10[/calc]"]
         Your order is less than $10.00. You will be charged a $10.00
         minimum for this order.
[/if]

That takes care of the message.  To adjust the actual order total to 
reflect this total, take a look at the [assign] tag (IC 4.7 only).
