Hmmm... Dude if your creeps are neutral hostiles, you'll be stuck on level 5 unless you customize some settings on your map. Try going to Tabs>Advanced>Gameplay Constants

Then at your Gameplay Constants find...Hero XP Gained - Creep Reduction Table.
there will be numbers. 80,70,60,50,0. The only problem is the number 0. That's why your heroes can level up when they are on level 5 because of the number 0. Try to change the whole number to 100. I guess that solve that problem. Another thing. I think you are a beginner so find in the Gameplay Constants the Hero Maximum Level. change it to whatever you like.
 
If hero kill neutral hostile unit he won't get experience (Above level 5)!

Solutions:

- Very Easy:
Change player owner (any other except neutral ones)

- Easy but a little bothering:
Change values show on picture

- A little hard:
Create Experience triggers
(Why hard? Well we don't know how your map look, what systems you use, is it GUI or script etc etc)
Here basic trigger action that will be needed in any trigger
  • Hero - Add 1000 experience to (Triggering unit), Show level-up graphics
- Again a little hard:
Create Items (Tome of Experience) that will be dropped when unit dies

(Why hard? Well we again don't know how many units you placed on the ground, did you use any spawn system, how many level you created, you will need large number of items and triggers again if you use spawn or any other summon systems etc etc)

------------------------------------
My suggestion, use 1st one ^^

I would go with the Advance > Gameplay Constants aswell, but before you even make the thread try using the search engine. This question have been made half a million times before :)

Additional Info:

If you're using TRIGGERS, it's hard to give a different amount of EXP to the Hero based on WHAT type of creep that has been killed
Example: A gnoll creep will give 50 EXP per kill, but an ogre creep will give 100 EXP per kill, this can give problems as you must SET the EXP value PER creep, making your trigger longer
