The term you are looking is SMS gateway.. Twilio API is working well with android, or you can use some other as per your wish..

Best is Bulk SMS. First Register here and then use your user name and password as shown in the example

Example:

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class SendSms {

static public void main(String[] args) {
    try {
        // Construct data
        String data = "";
        data += "username=" + URLEncoder.encode("your username", "ISO-8859-1");
        data += "&password=" + URLEncoder.encode("password", "ISO-8859-1");
        data += "&message=" + URLEncoder.encode("your message", "ISO-8859-1");
        data += "&want_report=1";
        data += "&msisdn=44123123123";// relace with the number

        // Send data
        URL url = new URL("http://bulksms.vsms.net:5567/eapi/submission/send_sms/2/2.0");

        URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
        conn.setDoOutput(true);
        OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream());
        wr.write(data);
        wr.flush();

        // Get the response
        BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
        String line;
        while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
            // Print the response output...
            System.out.println(line);
        }
        wr.close();
        rd.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
}
