How to create a radio button with text at left of button programmatically in android?

I have created my radio buttons with text at left of its button in xml :

<RadioButton
    android:id="@+id/radio_sattelite1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="right"
    android:button="@null"
    android:checked="true"
    android:drawableRight="@android:drawable/btn_radio"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:onClick="onRadioButtonClicked"
    android:text="@string/sattelite1" />

For some reason I have to create some of them in my java code but I'm unable to design it as above.

EDIT: with the help of my friends @Hariharan and @Haresh I end up with this code :

Drawable drawable = getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.btn_radio);
drawable.setBounds(0, 0, 57, 72);
radioButton.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, drawable, null);

But now the problem is that both buttons at left and right appears.

Try this..

yourradiobutton.setCompoundDrawables(drawable_left, drawable_top, drawable_right, drawable_bottom);

EDIT

    RadioButton radioButton = new RadioButton(this);
    radioButton.setText("sattelite1");
    Drawable drawable = getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.btn_radio);
    drawable.setBounds(0, 0, 57, 72);
    radioButton.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, drawable, null);
    radioButton.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
    radioButton.setChecked(true);
    radioButton.setButtonDrawable(android.R.color.transparent);
    radioButton.setBackgroundDrawable(null);

Finally I get it to work with help of stackoverflow fellas :

radioButton.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
Drawable drawable = getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.btn_radio);
drawable.setBounds(0, 0, 57, 72);
radioButton.setButtonDrawable(R.drawable.empty);
radioButton.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, drawable, null);

so what is the R.drawable.empty ? This is a png file without background that you have to create it.

Thanks ....

Instead of adding text to radio button you can do one thing, in a linear layout with horizontal orientation, add one textview first and the next to that add radio button with no text as below:

<LinearLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView  android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" text="button text" >
</TextView>
<RadioButton
    android:id="@+id/radio_sattelite1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:checked="true"
    android:onClick="onRadioButtonClicked"/>
</LinearLayout>
