You will probably need to get a VPS. A dedicated server is probably overkill, but a VPS with *at least* 256 megs would be usable - I've not seen Java apps run in VPS smaller than that with any usefulness.
I've got an app on a VPS with linode.com. Their minimum is 360megs of RAM for $20/month. The 540meg for $30/month would be adequate for most small-medium Java apps. That said, you could put something together to do what you're looking to do and run it on probably almost any shared PHP/MySQL host for under $10/month. So, the decision may come down to budget more than anything.
