Oracle of Bones' Tribute ETB ability goes on the stack immediately after he resolves. It's not part of the resolution of the creature spell.
This happens because Tribute is worded with "as this creature enters the battlefield..." in the same way as Unleash from RTR. Your opponent makes the Tribute decision after the spell has resolved, but before the creature enters the battlefield.
TL; DR - You have priority and can respond to the trigger by casting Inspiration to fill up your hand.
