At this point when I activate a plugin and an update is available it updates the plugin. I like to create a plugin myself that I want to use private, I have several WordPress blogs and if I made an update to the plugin I like those several WordPress blogs to state that there is an update available. Does anyone know how to do that?

If you don't want to roll your own solution, you can use kernl.us for hosted plugin updates. – Jack Slingerland Oct 18 '15 at 3:55

There is a plugin for that: Automatic Updates For Private And Commercial Plugins.
To prevent upgrade checks against the WordPress.org data base in your plugin use the function Mark Jaquith has written.

Note that update check requests were changed to use JSON and Jaquith's functions no longer work as-is on current WP version. – Rarst Jan 11 '14 at 17:57
