Or you can create it where ever you want. Preferably, a text copy along with your backups.
alter database backup controlfile to trace as '/myFilesystem/myTraceFile';

What problem are you really, really trying to solve?

Why do you think you should call this file from RMAN?

It has been my experience that the contents of this file has 2 sections;
-- Set #1. NORESETLOGS case
-- Set #2. RESETLOGS case

So I have always edited this file before (ab)using it.
