One thing that you can do :
Have a sky_sphere with the sky as you like it.

sky_sphere{pigment{Your_Sky_Pigment}}

Now, add a large sphere around your scene, Give it the same texture as 
your sky_sphere, but with a high emission finish :

sphere{0,1 // So that you don't need to scale your pigment
  pigment{Your_Sky_Pigment}
  finish{diffuse 0 emission 3}
  // Don't interact with lights, but make it bright !
  scale 10000 // make it large
  hollow // to remove a warning and allow the use of media & fog
  no_image no_reflection // So that it don't show
}

That's not the only option.
