string - Convert a file path to Uri in Android

Question

I have an app where I capture a video using the camera. I can get the video's file path, but I need it as a Uri.

The file path I'm getting:

/storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera/20141219_133139.mp4

What I need is like this:

content//media/external/video/media/18576.

This is my code.

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        // if the result is capturing Image

         if (requestCode == CAMERA_CAPTURE_VIDEO_REQUEST_CODE) {
            if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                // video successfully recorded
                // preview the recorded video
                // selectedImageUri = data.getData();
                // Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
                previewVideo();

                tv1.setText(String.valueOf((fileUri.getPath())));
                String bedroom=String.valueOf((fileUri.getPath()));
                Intent i = new Intent();
                i.putExtra(bhk1.BEDROOM2, bedroom);
                setResult(RESULT_OK,i); 
                btnRecordVideo.setText("ReTake Video");

            } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
                // user cancelled recording
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "User cancelled video recording", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                        .show();
            } else {
                // failed to record video
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "Sorry! Failed to record video", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                        .show();
            }
        }
    }

I need a Uri from the String variable bedroom.
