A PERC6-series card may be supported with certain patch levels.
I looked up the downloads for an R710, a 2950, a 2850 and 2650. Only the 2650 (Pentium 4 based processors) lists downloads for RHEL3.
So, based on the server model with RHEL3 downloads and the OS' age, you have to look for 5+ year old servers probably.
If you want to run it on a current/new server, I suggest you virtualize the OS. You can look into RHEV, Citrix XenServer, or VMware ESXi hypervisor (free edition).

As RHEL3 dates from 2003, with the latest patch being from 2007, it's unlikely that the current PERC H-series adapters are supported.
