I don't get why you even want to do this with Java at all.

The code is just dropping a table if it exists but methinks most modern databases have a nice feature whereas you can say, 

DROP table xzy IF EXISTS ...

I don't know if your db has such a feature but I would check. This makes it so you can avoid all of the error handling stuff.

Next, the code just creates a table. Pardon me for stating the obvious but this reads a lot like, "hey, somebody said I had to use Perl but since I hate to learn new stuff I'm just gonna wrap my Java stuff..."

If so that is sad. Perl has much more to offer you in exchange for minimal effort.
