I'm running 'kernel-PAE', but updating this package forces installation of 'kernel' package.
This is yum's 'shortest-match' algorithm biting you. The new PAE kernel should have the virtual provide for kernel-drm-nouveau as well, but since you don't have it yet, and you didn't ask yum to also update kernel-PAE, it tries to satisfy the Requires by installing a new package.
Oh well. Add 'kernel-PAE' to the transaction list and you should be set.
