Create calendar event in the default android calendar

I have the following code to do something when a button is pressed. I would like to be able to have the button create a calendar event for March 3rd, 2013 at 10:00 am. All help is appreciated.

Code:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    //Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
   // button.setOnClickListener(this);
    final CheckBox checkBox = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.checkBox1);
    final CheckBox checkBox2 = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.checkBox2);


    final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
    button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
    {
        public void onClick(View v) {


             if (checkBox.isChecked()) {

You can open calendar with help of Intent.

Below is code for setting event in Calendar application. you can only open Calendar activity with default Event field filled.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);
intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.item/event");
intent.putExtra("title", "Some title");
intent.putExtra("description", "Some description");
intent.putExtra("beginTime", eventStartInMillis);
intent.putExtra("endTime", eventEndInMillis);
startActivity(intent);

Put above code in your button's onclick listener.

In addition, you must add these calendar permissions in your manifest.xml:

android:name="android.permission.READ_CALENDAR"
android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR"
