By "ships with", do you mean that it's not there by default, or that you can't get it through yum? Because if it's just the former, you should be able to declare that your program depends on Python 3. RHEL 6 came out in 2010 and RHEL 7 in 2014, so I would be very surprised if there's no Python 3 available in either (the latter should have been able to pick up 3.3 or 3.4, depending on feature freeze). Unfortunately, all I can find on official sites is behind a paywall, and the info on Stack Exchange assumes that you've already seen the official info and/or can type "yum search python3" or "yum install python3" to try it.
