You must block port 443 on your firewall, not on squid.

If you intent to block port 443, it's useless to redirect it to squid.

If you want to intercept port 443, you should know thatit's called
man-in-the-middle attack since the traffic is encrypted between browser and
server. While newest squid supports this by using SSLBump feature, browers
can detect that you did this because the squid's certificate won't match the
server name.
