When shooting RAW, colour space is insignificant.

If you're preparing stuff for print, you work in Adobe RGB (or whatever wide colour gamut you want to indulge yourself in); when saving images for web, save them in sRGB so that the browsers can display the image correctly.

The important point to note is that colour space is relevant when it comes time to actually working with the RAW data. While shooting, it doesn't make a difference -- that is, unless you're shooting JPG, in which case it makes sense to stick with sRGB.
