I think you are confusing several concepts: SQL Server databases are NOT the same as U-SQL databases. U-SQL has its own object model and catalog. So you cannot access a local SQL Server database from U-SQL.
If you are running in Azure, you can create an external data source in the U-SQL catalog through which you can access SQL Server instances in Azure VMs. But you cannot access local SQL Server databases directly.

Since this year you can emulate Azure SQL Database locally:

But keep in mind that this is just for testing.
