Building an Android Source Code is some complex task. You have to first Initializing a Build Environment for that. And after Choosing a Branch for your requirement.

I suggest you to build android source code on Linux machine specially, ubuntu 10.04. As Android Platform support officially on this.

Note: The source download is approximately 6GB in size. You will need 25GB free to complete a single build, and up to 90GB (or more) for a full set of builds.

You can find further instruction on this Initializing a Build Environment

Update:

Also Look at How to Compile ICS (Ubuntu) and How to Compile Android from Source Code

Develop an sdk in user mode, Use this command

$ lunch full-user

limited access; suited for production

Also other Target (developing modes)

$ lunch full-userdebug

like "user" but with root access and debuggability; preferred for debugging

$ lunch full-eng

development configuration with additional debugging tools
