I spent a little bit of time looking into this. After reading through
some of the source code for HttpURLConnection, URLConnection and URL, it
looks like you would need to create a custom URLStreamHandler (which
bind()s to the IP address you want when you connect) to pass to a URL
constructor, of which later you would use getConnection() to obtain the
HttpURLConnection.

Investigating the source code to these classes should lead you to the
result you want.
