The xorg-x11-server-Xvfb package is officially available from RedHat for RHEL 6 and RHEL 7 under the Optional channel (RHEL Workstation Optional, or RHEL Server Optional).

From the comments: To enable the optional repo: subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms and then you can install the package with yum install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb
