Please don't use a scheme unless it is one that you have registered. Schemes are global to the universe, and since you will be putting this out in the universe via your web page you want to follow the rules for them.
Another approach you can take is to just create an Intent that you want to have launched, and print the result of Intent.toUri() to get the string to use in your link. (This should be an intent: URI.) Then you probably want to just make your own action following the standard naming conventions which that Intent will use. You can even use Intent.setPackage() to make sure that only your app can be launched from the link, if you want. (Do note you can't use Intent.setComponent() for this for security reasons.)
