Few, if any, Android PDF viewer apps will honor the android.resource scheme, and there is no Uri scheme for assets.

If you want to serve up a PDF file, copy it from assets or a raw resource into internal storage, then use FileProvider to make it available to other apps. Here is a sample application that does this.
