How to get a file path from c drive in android

Broken In
I was trying to extract the content of a pdf file and display its content in android. I tired the code in java and it worked.But when i am coding it in android, its not displaying anything. I think, its not getting the file path. I have this pdf file in my pc whose content i want to extract. where should i store this file so that i can get its path in a string? How to get the path? The code is given below:

public class hello extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private static String INPUTFILE = "FirstPdf.pdf";
String str;


@Override

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
try {
Document document = new Document();


document.open();
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(INPUTFILE);

int n = reader.getNumberOfPages();
str=PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage(reader, 2);

} catch (IOException e) {

//e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {

e.printStackTrace();
}
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(str);
setContentView(tv);
}
}

I would be very grateful if the problem is solved.
