How to set color in Java code (Android)

Question

My code,

if (position == 1) {
    return new DummyItem(String.valueOf(position), "  ABOUT "+"ME", String.valueOf(position));
} else if (position == 2) {
    return new DummyItem(String.valueOf(position), "  ABOUT "+"Office", String.valueOf(position));
}

Here in first case return value is "ABOUT ME". So I want to set pink color to "ABOUT ME". How to set color in Java code?

ABOUT ME text field is works like clickable field and when I click on "ABOUT ME" it will call aboutme.XML (xml contain just text/data).
