Any rules for this at all? I wanted to try a CN one whose a bit hedonistic.

The Remaster is going to bring those options to the table. As for now, no.
Though I am in your same position (sort of. I'm a Rogue using Free Archetype to get Cleric of Calistria and Champion of Calistria). My GM was kind enough to let me follow only the Liberator's tenets, without needing to also follow Tenets of Good.
But, with the Champion as is (even with Errata) you have to follow either Good or Evil by RAW. If you can wait until August that seems the best idea, otherwise speak with your GM about it.
Technically, there are no good champions anymore, because good is no longer a term with mechanical weight since alignment is gone. There are holy champions, which basically amount to the same thing. Pre-remaster, there were non-good champions on the form of evil causes, which are currently unholy causes.
As mentioned, Player Core 2 will provide something closer to what you actually want, rather than what you asked for:
"A champion can optionally choose a sanctification. If you’ve read Pathfinder Player Core, you’re familiar with holy and unholy sanctification—a choice based on your deity that lets you commit yourself to the battle for souls between the holy planes and unholy planes. Champions can choose sanctification based on their deity, though unholy sanctification is an uncommon option. Each sanctification gives you another edict and anathema, and adds the holy or unholy trait to all your Strikes.
Some, but not all, champion causes require a certain sanctification. Justice, mentioned above, does not. The Player Core 2 causes are justice, liberation, and obedience (open to all); desecration and iniquity (open only to unholy champions); and redemption and grandeur (open only to holy champions). If you are already playing a champion and want to update them to the new options, you’ll probably be able to keep the core of that character. Though you can always shake things up with the new grandeur cause, which is based on the brilliant splendor of celestials."

We should know more win the next two weeks when folks start getting their PDFs for the July subscription shipping.
I'm a bit confused by the title. Evil Champion has been a thing for quite a while. Only Neutral alignment wasn't supported (but as mentioned, will be in PC2).
