It's not possible currently to write anything other than text (or pickle files I think in 1.0.0 or if not then in 1.0.1) from PySpark.
I have an outstanding pull request to add READING any InputFormat from PySpark, and after that is in I will look into OutputFormat too. What does your data look like? Any details about your use case that you could share would aid the design of this feature.
