You don't need to do anything.

As the Javadoc for Integer.parseInt(str, radix) states, a NumberFormatException is thrown if the value represented by the String is not representable as an int value; i.e. if its magnitude is too big. This is described as a separate case from the case where str is badly formatted, so it is clear (to me) that this is what is meant. (And you can confirm this by reading the source code.)
