Don't see what NetBeans has to do with this. It's an IDE.

Google and download either Microsoft's JDBC driver or jTDS.
The docs for either one will tell you what the URL should look like.

Uhm SQL (Structured Query Language) is like the base of all other type like MySQL and Oracle. See something i found in two seconds with the wonder of google http://sqlzoo.net/ & http://sqlzoo.net/w.htm

Um, given the context I think the person was referring to "Microsoft SQL Server". Sometimes people will cut to the chase and refer to the product as "SQL". At those times it's understood by all parties that we're not talking about the query language, rather the Microsoft product.
I think this is one of those times.

It's commendable that you're using Google. I'd argue that the OP should be making better use of it, too. But I don't think your response is applicable to this context. JMO, of course.
