You may add 'ignore_errors' => true to options:

$options = array(
  'http' => array(
    'ignore_errors' => true,
    'header' => "Content-Type: application/json\r\n"
    )
);
$context  = stream_context_create($options);
$result = file_get_contents('http://example.com', false, $context);

In that case you will be able to read a response from the server.
