Searching for a Java embeded database framework/engine

Question

I'm trying to develop a small Java application using a database. I don't want to use any external database source like postgreSQL.

Can anyone recommend a good embedded persistent database engine, allowing me to create and query tables and store data?

Jetty allows developers to integrate a webserver in a Java application. Does a similar engine exist for databases?

Thanks

JavaDB is already provided by Oracle in Java. It is the Oracle packaged version of Apache Derby, an open-source embedded db from Apache. You can use it without any need to add an external library. Look at here for details: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javadb/overview/faqs-jsp-156714.html
