I am looking for some guideance in terms of what database to use server(using servlets) side of my android application.

Further down the line i will setup a website that will need to access the information from with the database.

At the moment from what i know i can use hibernate for object mapping to RDBMS or i can use JDBC for interaction with a MySql Database.

Do you guys have any best practices for using either the above or a different system for interaction between servlet and database?

If you are looking to get started quickly, you could use AppInventor, but if you want to build a backend yourself I suggest Ruby on Rails(get ubuntu if you don't have it!). Its easy to learn, easy to install, and very user-friendly.

The server and database will be handled by the Ruby on Rails framework.

Android application just acts as a client that makes request and accepts response from a Server. Server could be written using Servelets / JSP, ASP or PHP. As far as I know it doesn't matter to android client which database server is used at the server side as far as client is getting the response from the server.
