Record audio using recorder and then upload that on server android

I am trying to record audio in my app On a button press 

    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.Audio.Media.RECORD_SOUND_ACTION); 
    startActivityForResult(intent, ACTIVITY_RECORD_SOUND);

But it is giving me error 

    android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.provider.MediaStore.RECORD_SOUND }

but when i install any sound recorder from play store this error is gone but after recording the audio it does not return anything . It stay on the recorder window .

also what i have to write to get that audio file and upload it to the server

        @Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

}

You can use below code.

MediaRecorder recorder = new MediaRecorder();
        recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
        recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
        recorder.setOutputFile(path);
//            recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AAC);         for mp3 audio
        recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
recorder.prepare();
recorder.start();

and path could be anything where file exists.for e.g.

path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/Android/data/" + context.getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + "/files/" + "myrecording.m4a";

There is no requirement for an Android device to have an activity that responds to that Intent action.

when i install any sound recorder from play store this error is gone but after recording the audio it does not return anything . It stay on the recorder window .

That app has a bug, apparently.

also what i have to write to get that audio file and upload it to the server

Quoting the documentation for RECORD_SOUND_ACTION, the output is "An uri to the recorded sound stored in the Media Library if the recording was successful". IOW, call getData() on the Intent delivered to onActivityResult(), and that is supposed to be a Uri pointing to the recorded audio. Note that this does not have to represent a file on the filesystem, let alone one that you can access.
