Mr Somchai, brother-in-law to ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra, will take office once he is endorsed by His Majesty the King.
Prior to the vote, Mr Somchai expressed confidence that he would be voted as the prime minister.
"There is no rebellion in the party," he told reporters upon arriving at parliament. "My family fully supports me to work to the best of my ability."
Mr Abhisit, meanwhile, called on the new prime minister to hold talks with anti-government protesters and step out of Mr Thaksin's shadow.

Speaking after being voted as prime minister, Mr Somchai said he could not say if he would also take the post of defence minister. His priority was to tackle the floods which were ravaging several provinces and financial problems associated with the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, he said.
Mr Somchai's nomination was backed by 298 MPs against 163 who voted for Democrat leader Abhisit Vejjajiva. Five MPs abstained — Mr Somchai, Mr Abhisit, House Speaker Chai Chidchob and his two deputies, Pollapi Suwanchawee and Areepen Udonsin.
Four MPs missed voting including former prime minister Samak Sundaravej, who showed up late for the session.
Mr Abhisit said he hoped Mr Somchai would steer the country away from crisis.
