If you are willing to sacrifice some portability (see description of columnDefinition attribute) for the ability to use MySQL's automatic initialization TIMESTAMP (see MySQL timestamp initialization), then you can use the following:

  created_time:
    type: datetime
    columnDefinition: TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

Annotation:

@ORM\Column(type="datetime", columnDefinition="TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP")
