I have to assume that you are using hard copper and not soft copper. You might try heating it with a propane torch to help soften it up a bit. Again I have to assume that the tubing has nothing in it. They do make what is known as a bending spring which slide over the tubing and helps support the walls to keep from kinking. You might also try the bending tool that electricians use to bend conduit.. If the bend does not have to be to sharp should not be to much trouble. If you are using soft copper, should be no problem as it comes in a coil, and it might be better to use the soft copper if this is a new water line or an add on.
Copper is the best. It's soft enough to bend yet strong enough to with stand the pressures involved.
