In the context of loop quantum cosmology, we provide a complete quantization of an inhomogeneous inflationary model consisting of a perturbed Friedmann-Lemaˆıtre-RobertsonWalker universe filled with a minimally coupled massive scalar field. We focus on the case of flat, compact spatial sections. After fixing the local gauge freedom, the kinematical Hilbert space is constructed by combining the representation used in loop quantum cosmology for the homogeneous sector with a preferred Fock quantization of the inhomogeneities. We characterize the physical states annihilated by the quantum Hamiltonian constraint and discuss the evolution of the inhomogeneities in the presence of an emergent relational time.
