How to create an ActionBar/ ToolBar in Java

I'm trying to programatically create an ActionBar in a DrawerLayout as follows: 

import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;

public class RevToolBar extends MainActivity {

    public Toolbar getRevToolbar() {
        Toolbar revToolBar = new Toolbar( this );
        setSupportActionBar(revToolBar);

        return revToolBar;
    }
}

Then in the main activity: 

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
        implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {

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

        Toolbar toolbar = new RevToolBar().getRevToolbar();

        FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
        fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                        .setAction("Action", null).show();
            }
        });

        DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
        ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
                this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
        drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
        toggle.syncState();

        NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
        navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
    }

However, the app always crashes just after starting:

App has stopped
Open app again

What is the proper way to create and add an ActionBar/ Toolbar in Java to a DrawerLayout?

Thank you all in advance.

try this

public class RevToolBar
{
Context mContext;
public RevToolBar(Context context){
    mContext = context;
  }
public Toolbar getRevToolbar() {
    Toolbar toolbar = new Toolbar(mContext);
    LinearLayout.LayoutParams toolBarParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
            Toolbar.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
            150
    );
    toolbar.setLayoutParams(toolBarParams);
    toolbar.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLUE);
    toolbar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
    return toolbar;
   }
}

and in MainActivity

RevToolBar revToolBar = new RevToolBar(MainActivity.this);
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer .addView(revToolBar.getRevToolbar(), 0);
