Narrative:

After delayed flight because of maintenance delay due to a check and engine 1 replacement we departed. At approximately 100 ft I noticed the ovht eng 1 nac EICAS message and at 200 ft noticed the fire eng 1 ecias message. We climbed through 400 ft and received the master warning accompanied by the fire warning bell. Autopilot was engaged and we climbed through 1000 ft and I preformed the qrc for fire eng 1 and started our efp and notified ATC and a mayday aircraft. Completed QRH recall review followed by after takeoff checklist. Upon completion of the qrc checklist the fire eng 1 warning disappeared so we did not need to blow the fire bottles. We asked for vectors back to [the airport] and requested the fire department standby to inspect the engine for any signs of a fire. After landing we exited runway and parked on taxiway. Fire department inspected engine and determined there was no indication of a fire and we were cleared into the maintenance ramp stand. We notified ops enroute of the return and on the ground notified maintenance control; ops; dispatch; and scheduling.
