I believe what you're looking for is $html->url() or, more direct, Router::url(). http://api.cakephp.org/class_router.html#a34cdc409ebe46302682fb8c242c4838
Also, you should lookup URLs with an array like array('controller' => 'groups', 'action' => 'something') instead of /groups/something. Seems more reliable for reverse lookups in my experience.
