Problem with Android Media Player Url

I work in one of my Android projects in which I play sound with a media player. When I use this URL to play a song, I get some IOException, but the song plays perfectly in MediaPlayer. What is the problem?

public void startMediaPlayer(String url) {

    Log.e("urlToPlay==>",url);
    // start new song for play

    if(mediaPlayer==null){
        mediaPlayer=new MediaPlayer();
    }else{
        mediaPlayer.reset();
    }
    Uri myUri1 = Uri.parse(url);

    mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
    try {

        mediaPlayer.setDataSource(getActivity(), myUri1);
        mediaPlayer.prepareAsync();

        mediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {

            @Override
            public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer player) {
                playPause=true;
                player.start();
                mediaFileLengthInMilliseconds = player.getDuration(); // gets the song length in milliseconds from URL

            } 
        });

        mediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener() {

            @Override
            public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
                playPause=false;
           }
        });

        mediaPlayer.setOnErrorListener(new OnErrorListener() {

            @Override
            public boolean onError(MediaPlayer arg0, int arg1, int arg2) {

                Log.e("onError==>","Something went wrong"+arg1+"");
                Log.e("onError==>","Something went wrong"+arg2+"");
                return false;
            }
        });

    } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        mediaPlayer.release();
    } catch (SecurityException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        mediaPlayer.release();
    } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        mediaPlayer.release();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        mediaPlayer.release();
    }
}

I got the following exception while playing a file

Try adding a URL scheme, such as " file://" or " http://". worked for me when I had the same exception while trying to play a local file.
