How to open an URL in my default browser if it's HTTPS and in the WebView if it's HTTP

I'm working on a Java-based Android app.

I wanna open links inside my app's WebView as long as URLs are HTTP and open URLs that include HTTPS in my default browser.

I have tried this code but it always opens in WebView even though I open URLs that include HTTPS.

This is my code:

//URLs
webv.loadUrl(Const.PATH_RESTAURANT + "res.pl?resUID=" + LoginActivity.mUserCD);

//condition to check url
if (Const.PATH_RESTAURANT.contains("https")) {
    //open in default web browser
    webv.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
} else {
    //open in webview
    webv.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
}

Use Intent.ACTION_VIEW

//condition to check url
if (Const.PATH_RESTAURANT.contains("https")) {
    //open in default web browser
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("http://www.example.com")); 
    startActivity(intent);
} else {
    //open in webview
    webv.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
}
