There is no "raw folder". Your project, on your PC, has a res/raw/
folder. That is not a folder on the Android device. It is not accessed
via a file:/// URL. It is a type of resource, and its contents are
accessed via getResources().openRawResource().

The contents of a resource like this are not accessible via Uri
objects. Hence, there is no simple way for you to store a PDF as a raw
resource in a project of yours and have it be displayed by some other
application.
