Just place the file in drawable folder and you can get it from there as R.drawwable.filename(through code) and @drawable/yourfilename(through XML).

Generally, You should not place shape.xml files in assets folder. In assets folder we generally place custom fonts, audio file,video file etc.

In your layout, you can set the drawable as the background like so:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:background="@drawable/drawable_name_without_the_.xml"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
