You can't set a PTR record for an IP that is in a block you don't own, PTR
records are unique, only one per IP is supposed to exists, so if your
domain provider and your ISP are not the same there is no way for you to
set a PTR without your ISPs' cooperation.
(PTR lookups go to the nameserver of whoever owns the IP block, not of some
random nameserver that happens to have a PTR record for that block)

Also note that though you can get a fixed IP at home the IP may still be
flagged in anti-spam databases as "non-server" space and therefor
suspicious/no-accept.
