I have field for example say "foo" I need to match exactly foo but there is

What I want is a PhraseQuery so I surround foo with quotes before it gets
passed to the QueryParser.parse method. However I get back a TermQuery and
the values that match foo1 end up being returned in the results but I need
an exact match on foo.
I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve, but:
1. Merely putting quotes around something doesn't make it a
PhraseQuery, having more than one term inside the quotes makes
something a phrase query.
2. Stop words sometimes removes a word such that what you thought
was a two-term query is actually one.
3. Whether it's a PhraseQuery or TermQuery has no effect on the way
it matches each individual term, i.e. it won't be any more or less
"exact".
I don't want to have to have a special case for PhraseQuery where I need to
bypass the parse method and manually construct this. Besides I'm not even
sure if that will work.
Even if it does "work" it won't change the semantics.
This is sounding like an X-Y problem, so what are you actually trying to
achieve? It sounds like you don't want stemming (talking about "exact"
matches) yet you chose the snowball analyser (whose sole purpose is
stemming, unless I am mistaken...)
