Database in Android. How to precreate database and use it

I am trying to make an application in Android in which i have to use database. I do not want to insert records into database. Database will be precreated. I am using DB Browser for SQLite to create database and placed the database file in src>main>assets folder(i created the folder) i just want to use select query by which i can get entries from db. I want to know if my approach is correct or not and if yes how do i proceed further.
