From what I understood what you need is a File Browser on your emulator .

Here's a random File Browser I found ( Google search ) .

Download the apk and install it with adb :

adb install MAndFileBrowser.apk

Please check this example for downloading and saving the file: http://www.androidsnippets.com/download-an-http-file-to-sdcard-with-progress-notification. After you downloaded the file you can see it in the DDMS perspective, at the "file explorer" view. There will be an "sdcard" folder. Please also be sure that you set the size of the emulator's SD card when you created the emulator.
