Which Java equivalent do you mean?

  a.  String s = null;
  b.  String s = "";

The RPG versions:

D StringClass   c             'java.lang.String'
D newString     pr        O   extproc(*java : StringClass
D                                   : *constructor)
D   val              65535A   const varying

D s             s             like(newString)

a.  s = *NULL;
b.  s = newString ('')
