Please remove the table name from the connection string.

just write

Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://mysql2.000webhost.com/a4931569_users", username, pass);

JDBC URL Format

The JDBC URL format for MySQL Connector/J is as follows, with items in square brackets ([, ]) being optional:

jdbc:mysql://[host][,failoverhost...][:port]/[database] »
[?propertyName1][=propertyValue1][&propertyName2][=propertyValue2]...

If the host name is not specified, it defaults to 127.0.0.1. If the port is not specified, it defaults to 3306, the default port number for MySQL servers.

jdbc:mysql://[host:port],[host:port].../[database] »
[?propertyName1][=propertyValue1][&propertyName2][=propertyValue2]...

Here is a sample connection URL:

jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sakila?profileSQL=true

Please refer http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html

Edit

In case of

It says: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure

you need to go with answer of Math.

MySQL from 000webhost doesn't allow you to connect from external applications, just from within pages hosted in their domain.
