To elaborate further on what @Lyrkan said, add the following to your manifest,

<receiver class=".SMSReceiver">
   <intent-filter>
      <action android:value="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" />
  </intent-filter>
</receiver>

and make sure you have the appropriate permission, i.e. 

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS"/>

and the class you need to implement is something like

public class SMSReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{

    @Override 
    public void onReceive(Context context,Intent intent){
    //your code here
    }
}//end of class

Now from the onReceive you can do whatever it is that you want to do with the SMS.

The notification is generated by the default sms application, so it is linked to it, you can't change that.
The only thing you can do is create by yourself a notification through a receiver/intent-filter and link it to the Activity you want to launch.
