I think you are intersted in the altscreen option. I believe it does what you want. Alternatively, you could look into hacks as described here: http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/snipplets/screen_saverestore using tput smcup and tput rmcup to save and restore the screen manually, though this is probably not what you're looking for.
