I would suggest 「お金を貯ためている。」or a more polite conjugation if circumstances require.
節約 would mean you are being 'economical' with your usage of money, rather than emphasizing the saving of money.
貯金している might be alright, but I believe it has a stronger connotation of the physical accumulation of money, rather than the more abstract sense of just 'saving money'. Also, as @naruto さん mentions, it is tautological.

お金を貯金する sounds slightly odd because it's tautological (like 馬に乗馬する or 車を洗車する), but I don't think there is a difference between 貯金する and お金を貯める like you described. Isn't it 預金 that has a "physical connotation of depositing money in the bank"?
