Java or JavaScript? They are not the same language.
JavaSript can be included right within the HTML file with <script> tags, usually in <head> section. However, it's good practice to keep JavaScript in its own file, same with CSS. You can implement JS from an external file by adding a script tag like so:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/your_script_file.js" ></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Content goes here -->
</body>
</html>

Since Html5, 'type' attribute of <script> elements is no more mandatory, so you can write shortener:
<script src="url/to/your/script/file.js"></script>
Anyway, by this way you link an external JS file.
You can also include inlined (embeded) JS code directly into Html source, by placing it as content of <script> element:
<script>
/* some JavaScript code */
</script>
<script> elements can be placed (linked as inlined) anywhere in the Html source... The only difference wich will occurs is the moment when the JS code will be loaded/parsed/ran: as default behaviour is to be synchrone, it would have some incidence (more or less, depending of context) to load time, wait time, ... before displaying content ^^
