I think your asking for the final URL you are redirected to... right?
If so this should help nicely:
http://www.example-code.com/java/http_redirect.asp
I think you need to pay attention to this part:
if (http.get_WasRedirected() == true) {
System.out.println("This was a redirect response");
System.out.println("Redirect URL:");
System.out.println(http.finalRedirectUrl());
}
Hope that helps ;)
