I though, that environment variables where considered
as legacy in JDK 1.1. Quoting from
java.lang.System#getenv(String name)
Deprecated. The preferred way to extract system-dependent information is
the system properties of the java.lang.System.getProperty methods
and the corresponding getTypeName methods of the Boolean, Integer, and
Long primitive types. For example:
String classPath = System.getProperty("java.class.path",".");
if (Boolean.getBoolean("myapp.exper.mode"))
enableExpertCommands();

Anyway, there is no method to set environment variables. What you'll
have to do is calling an external programm or creating a native library
which reads and writes the environment variables for you.
