Following code will help:
API 22: Using HttpClient and "binary/octet-stream"
How to send a file in Android from mobile to server using http?
API23: Using HttpUrlConnection
Sending files using POST with HttpURLConnection
Or, you can use Retrofit. It is powerful, robust, easy http library.

OK, I added link of example using HttpUrlConnection(above API23.) But I suggest you to use Retrofit, it is much better. – Stanley Ko Mar 10 '16 at 13:12
