        }catch (Exception e){
            /* Error
        }

    }
}

The DownloadManager can only download to external storage, you need to implement your own download manager.

Use this method to save file:

// DownloadFile AsyncTask
    private class DownloadFile extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Bitmap> {

        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
            super.onPreExecute();
        }

        @Override
        protected Bitmap doInBackground(String... URL) {

            String imageURL = URL[0];

            Bitmap bitmap = null;
            try {
                // Download Image from URL
                InputStream input = new java.net.URL(URL).openStream();
                // Decode Bitmap
                bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(input);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            return bitmap;
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(Bitmap result) {

            if (result != null) {
                File dir = new File(mContext.getFilesDir(), "MyImages");
                if(!dir.exists()){
                    dir.mkdir();
                }
                File destination = new File(dir, "image.jpg");

                try {
                    destination.createNewFile();
                    ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
                    result.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 0 /*ignored for PNG*/, bos);
                    byte[] bitmapdata = bos.toByteArray();

                    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(destination);
                    fos.write(bitmapdata);
                    fos.flush();
                    fos.close();
                    selectedFile = destination;
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        }
    }

Usage:

new DownloadFile().execute("url_here");

Note: I have added code for image type file
