We do this all the time at work. Just give your MAC an IP addy outside of your scope range. It will not interfere with the DHCP server as it can't issue that address as its not in its range.

Then add the MAC IP addy as a reservation or an exclusion on the DHCP server. Means that you have a record of the MAC on the DHCP server.

The other way is to give the MAC an IP addy within the scope and then reserve it for the MAC. This way you don't even need to give the MAC an IP address, it will always get the one you reserved for it on the DHCP server.

Hope that makes sence
