Sorry. ESRI's standalone FileGDB API does not support Rasters yet.

See http://ideas.arcgis.com/ideaView?id=08730000000bsadAAA

Of course, if you did have an ESRI license, you could write a GDAL
ArcObjects driver.
I wrote an OGR (i.e. for vectors) ArcObjects driver for a customer in the
past (before there was a FileGDB API).
Nobody has demonstrated interest for it, thus it doesn't exist yet.

Best,
