I'm don't know about a keymap per se, but maybe this will do:
read-multilingual-string is a compiled Lisp function in
‘<emacs>/lisp/international/mule-cmds.el’.
(read-multilingual-string PROMPT &optional INITIAL-INPUT INPUT-METHOD)
Read a multilingual string from minibuffer, prompting with string PROMPT.
The input method selected last time is activated in minibuffer.
If optional second argument INITIAL-INPUT is non-nil, insert it in the
minibuffer initially.
Optional 3rd argument INPUT-METHOD specifies the input method to be activated
instead of the one selected last time. It is a symbol or a string.
