Play with your normal embouchure, but only put the minimum amount of your top lip between your top teeth and the mouthpiece. It will be uncomfortable at first, but soon you'll get accustomed to it (as your lower lip has).

You might find it unstable as the clarinet hasn't the teeth support, so it's best practicing this sat down, and if need be, lightly rest the clarinet bell on your right knee.
