Try this

Intent it = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri uri = Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/song.mp3");
it.setDataAndType(uri, "audio/mp3");
startActivity(it);

or

Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(MediaStore.Audio.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, "1");   
Intent it = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);   
startActivity(it);

or You can simply pass the url to Media Player like this,

Uri myUri = Uri.parse("your url here");
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW); 
intent.setDataAndType(myUri, "audio/*"); 
startActivity(intent);

I haven't tested myself.
