I don't know of any way to tell clamav to ignore a particular file. But you can tell it to exclude one or more directories from a scan by modifying clamd.conf.
Details are in https://linux.die.net/man/5/clamd.conf:

The other option is to put the file in an encrypted zip, VeraCrypt, or similar file to hide it from the antivirus. Putting it in a non-encrypted file won't (or at least shouldn't) do the job.
