The last time I needed to draw an inner class into a class diagram (which was a long time ago), I ended up using the same class notation for both inner and regular classes. If the inner class is non-static, you can associate it to the outer class using a composition. Otherwise, I would just rely on the name ("MyOuter.MyInner") to communicate my intention.
However, I would be interested to know what others think about this as I really didn't do much research on existing practices at the time.
