I trust you know what this would do to your SE placement, I would recommend two alternativs.
1. Use javascript redirect
2. make a fremeset with one framepage. The frameset url would be www.bla.com/index.htm and the framepage would be www.blabla.com. Remember to use the noframes section of the frameset page
regards
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="10; URL=http://www.htmlhelp.com/">tells the browser to load http //www htmlhelp.com/ 10 seconds after the current document has finished loading. Not all browsers support this, so authors should provide an alternate means of moving to the new page where necessary. The Refresh header is sometimes used for "splash screens" or when a page has moved, but the technique is not very effective since users may not even be looking at the window that is to be refreshed and since it messes up the user's history on many browsers. Some search engines penalize pages that use a Refresh of a few seconds or less.

document.location.replace('http://newurl');

<body>
This domain has been temporarily moved to <a href='http://newurl'>http://newurl</a>. Click the link if you are not redirected. There is no need to update your bookmarks.

This might solve most problems.
- It won't screw up the browser history (because of the replace method).
- If JavaScript is turned off they can click the link.
- Spiders can still see the URL as it's a link in the page.
