How to launch our application when user click on a weblink in system application like hangouts?

Question

I want to launch my application if user click on a web link in another application and if user wants to open that link with my application.I used following intent filter

 <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
            <data android:scheme="http"/>
            <data android:scheme="https"/>
            <data android:host="www.google.com"/>
 </intent-filter>

But if user click on that link in another application that application is opening activity of my application in that application itself but i want to launch that activity in my application.

For example

suppose there is a link in hangouts like www.google.com if user click on that link it will show some apps to open in that if user select my app then it has to launch my application but it is launching my application activity in hangouts app itself without launching my app.

Please help me to solve this issue,Thanks in advance.

Try this on event onClick:

Intent it = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
it.setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com.br"));
startActivity(it);
