Display Map (Google API V2) Only on a Specific Area Of Screen

I want to show the map in the middle of the screen and want to show the header and footer separately which contains the options or menu buttons. Can Any one please tell me how can i set my layout so it will be best fit on every device. My current layout code is this. ` 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<fragment
android:id="@+id/map"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:paddingLeft="20dp"
    android:paddingRight="20dp" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/setup_macroSavebtn"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="left"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Now"/>

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/setup_macroCancelbtn"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="right"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Later"/>         
</LinearLayout>

</RelativeLayout>`

Although pasting code is seriously not the way to answer, so I will advice you to use weights for the map, and set the header and footer height to wrap_content 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
     android:id="@+id/LinearLayout1"
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="match_parent"
      android:orientation="vertical" >

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:paddingLeft="20dp"
    android:paddingRight="20dp" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/Button02"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="left"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Now" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/Button01"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="right"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Later" />
</LinearLayout>

<fragment
    android:id="@+id/map"
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="1" />

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="bottom"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:paddingLeft="20dp"
    android:paddingRight="20dp" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/setup_macroSavebtn"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="left"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Now" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/setup_macroCancelbtn"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="right"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="Ride Later" />
</LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>
