On CentOS v6.3 when I type:
yum update
followed by:
yum search inconsolata-fonts
or:
yum search inconsolata
I get no results.
However a Google search indicates that a package called inconsolata-fonts is available.
How can I make yum find this without manually downloading the rpm using a browser?

According to the page you linked to, these packages are in the DAG packages for Red Hat Linux repository. You can add these to your system through rpm-forge.
The basic steps are (taken from here):
Download the rpmforge-release package. Choose one of the two links below, selecting to match your host's architecture. If you are unsure of which one to use you can check your architecture with the command uname -i
Install DAG's GPG key
rpm --import http://apt.sw.be/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
Install the downloaded package
rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.*.rpm
Now install your font
yum install inconsolata-fonts
