Then don't download single files >4 GB.
Or
Try formatting to exFAT and not ext4.

Edit:
[KERNEL] [20 Nov][3.5][exFAT] Adam Kernel | Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 | XDA Forums

Check for the updated version of this kernel before flashing.

I don't think that's possible unless you swap it with internal memory. Then again it'll require a fat32 formatted card. Move all the pics/videos/media content from internal memory to sd card instead to make space.
