I finished to prepare the VM and joined samba4 to the domain.
As in the past, after the domain join no dns.keytab will be present in
the private directory.

As said by Gemes Geza, I exported the keytab using
[root at kdc01:/usr/local/samba/private]# samba-tool domain exportkeytab
dns.keytab
[root at kdc01:/usr/local/samba/private]# samba-tool user add dns-kdc02
--random-password
[root at kdc01:/usr/local/samba/private]# samba-tool spn add
DNS/kdc02.saitelitalia.local dns-kdc02

At this point, if I start named
[root at kdc01:~]# named -u bind -d 10 -g -c /etc/bind/named.conf
it fails
...

What am I missing?
If bind does not start I won't be able to see the AD DNS from windows (I
use XP to doublecheck what I'm doing) so I can't check if I can add the
reversed zone.
