(1) My Hades "consists of" or "is composed of" three divisions
(2) It used to be incorrect to say "comprised of," but due to common misuse, this phrase has become more widely accepted and now appears in some dictionaries. The preferred usage is still "a baseball team comprises nine members" or "hell comprises three divisions" (not "is comprised of").
(3) Given your context, I would more specifically say
My model of Hades is divided into three realms or levels, called "flames."

"Comprising" or in your case, "comprises" if you want a single word synonym
