In my haste I did not check that you were getting the error on https protocol.
The URL class is part of the core java that is loaded when you install JVM in Oracle..however, when you try to create an instance of the https URLConnection, it cannot create it unless JSSE (Java Secure Socket Extension) jar file is installed. Use loadjava utility provided in ORACLE_HOME\bin folder with, I believe -synonym switch, to load JSSE jar file into SYS schema.
