According to the Calendar javadoc for set(int,int,int) you'd set 17 Jan 2014 with

cal.set(2014, 0, 17);

Calendar.YEAR, Calendar.MONTH, Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH are names of fields that you can address in calendar, not actual values or placeholder for the current date.

Edit, after your comment - January is month 0, sorry for the typo.

Also, if you want the calendar to be "next month", set it to today, then add a month

cal.add(Calendar.MONTH, 1);

You want to look up the java docs in cases like this or maybe google for examples.

Caledar set method

cal.set( Calendar.YEAR, 2014 )
cal.set( Calendar.MONTH, 5 )

and so on
