I do this in a project where I need a default instance installed. If I don't find it I install SQL Express. This is the command line that ends up being run:
SQLEXPR.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,Client_Components,Connectivity SAPWD=sapassword
SQLEXPR.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,Client_Components,Connectivity SAPWD=sapassword
