2 dns records for same server

The OP stated he has 3 separate DNS servers.  Two serving public and
one serving private.  Under those circumstances, there is no specific
need or requirement for views.  Views are only needed if the same DNS
server is answering to clients that you want to give out different
answers.  If as the OP stated, and is assumed, the clients are separated
by different DNS servers, then simply mastering the domain on the
internal vs public servers is sufficient.
