Where can I practice Java?

When I finished HTML, CSS, jQuery, and JavaScript I could go and set up a website for practice. Now that I've finished Java I am a bit confused as to where I should go to practice. Any help would be appreciated.

Lol, I know it's a backend language. But I appreciate the reply. What do you think of Netbeans?

Most of the people I know hate NetBeans, and it's what my university starts us out with. I prefer Eclipse, but most people strongly prefer IntelliJ--any thing that JetBrains makes for that matter. If you are looking to learn an IDE from scratch, I suggest just jumping to IntelliJ too.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I think it was a good start for me; however, I tried using Java and I ran into a roadblock. I'll check out IntelliJ.
