301-redirect

I've a problem that I can't find the solution for on the web.

I have a blog that has PR 1 and it's subdomain "aaaa.domain.com" that "domain.com" is a blog server. Now I want buy a domain "newdomain.com" and I want tell google webmaster to redirect the old subdomain to this new domain and send traffic to my new domain. I can't access .htaccess to use a 301 redirect. The only thing that I can do is put html code in the html.

How can I do this? When I use "Change of Address" in google webmaster it say:"Restricted to root level domains only".
