Altocumuluswhat's REST for "save /sys config"?
I'm currently on 11.5, trying to do this in the REST interface to have a separate "write config files" step.
tmsh save /sys config

According to the The user guide for the iControl REST interface in BIG-IP, version 11.6.0 :
Under "Using the save command"
To save the running configuration using the save command, make a POST request. In the JSON body, specify the command.
POST /mgmt/tm/sys/config { "command":"save" }

CirrocumulusInteresting to note is that you currently can't create an SCF via iControl SOAP, only a UCS.

NimbostratusIn version 12.0 of BIGIP/REST, you can save and load SCF file, using this format for your data/payload and using POST method:
payload = {"command": "load", "options": [{"file":"/var/local/scf/medium_saving_config.scf"}]}
payload = {"command": "save", "options": [{"file":"/var/local/scf/medium_saving_config.scf"}]}
