Are you looking for something like RequestDispatcher#forward?
See
http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/Servlets9.html#wp64709
for an example.

It's obtained via an idiom like:

RequestDispatcher rd
= request.getRequestDispatcher( "path-within-app/otherServlet" );

The dispatch (not called "redirection") happens on the server side.
