I'm unaware of a ready image.  I suppose that you could boot from a
DVD as downloaded from Oracle and boot the installer from it.  The kvm
website mentions successes with Solaris, but usually a bit of tweaking
is necessary.

The last time I tried Solaris on kvm, it didn't work, so don't expect
the flawless installation experience you get on VirtualBox.
