See http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Process.html .

EDIT: you can also use to http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ActivityManager.html#getRunningAppProcesses%28%29 get http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ActivityManager.RunningAppProcessInfo.html . You can then find your process in the mix and access your user id .
