Is there any way do apt-get clean after apt-get install automatically, like in other distros?

You just need to add it at the apt configurations files. Just run:
sudo sh -c "echo 'DSELECT::Clean "always";' >> /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99AutomaticClean"
This will trigger automatic clean each time you do upgrade.
Lets explain this entry, from the man page:
Clean
Cache Clean mode; this value may be one of always, prompt, auto,
pre-auto and never. always and prompt will remove all packages
from the cache after upgrading, prompt (the default) does so
conditionally. auto removes only those packages which are no
longer downloadable (replaced with a new version for instance).
pre-auto performs this action before downloading new packages.
