file_get_contents and time outs

Is there a way to set the time out for a get_file_contents call. I don't want to stop the execution of the script. I just want file_get_contents to quit after a certain period of time.

I know about stream_set_timeout(), but it appears that only works with fsockopen.

Thanks in advance.
