You need to know the package and class names:

public static Intent getLaunchIntent(String packageName, String className) {
    Intent intent = new Intent(ACTION_MAIN);
    intent.addCategory(CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
    intent.setClassName(packageName, className);
    intent.setFlags(FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
            | FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
    return intent;
}
