Just put your file in asset folder n apply this code..

Media Player mp = new MediaPlayer();    

AssetFileDescriptor descriptor = contex.getAssets().openFd(fileName);
    mp.setDataSource( descriptor.getFileDescriptor(), 
descriptor.getStartOffset(), descriptor.getLength() );
    descriptor.close();
mp.prepare();
        mp.start();
