Looks like there is no straight method.How about sending an intent to open a specific search engine using ACTION_VIEW. 

String url = "http://www.yahoo.com";
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);

Also check out this question: Android: change default Home Application. It may give some insight
