Java string are already Unicode strings I don't know Oracle,
but I think you can save string directly:

String mystring = "ABCD";
Connection con  = DriverManager.getConnection (...);
PreparedStatement save = con.prepareStatement("UPDATE mytable SET mycolumn = ?");
save.setString(1,mystring);
save.executeUpdate();

If you want to save UTF-8 encoded text just use:
byte [] UNICODEbytes = mystring.getBytes("UTF-8");
