I was Solved My problem.you have to follow this steps

first you have to make HTTP request to get FormDigestValue using POST Method because its will not support GET Method. You can get this using below REST URL

"https://YourSite.sharepoint.com/_api/contextinfo"
Then you can make HTTP POST request for Add Data In SharePoint Particular List with below REST URL

"https://YourSite.sharepoint.com/_api/lists/getbytitle('Your_List_Name')/items"

Main things is that you have to Pass FormDigestValue in this request as well your Value which you want to add in list in json format like below

{'__metadata':{'type':'SP.Data.Android_x005f_TasksListItem'},'Title':'" + titleValue + "','Age':'" + ageValue + "'}

In this json You have to replace type of List which i have written like this 'SP.Data.Android_x005f_TasksListItem'

you can get this list type with below REST URL just paste in browser or make web call.

your_sharepointsite/_api/lists/getbytitle('Your_List_Name')?$select=ListItemEntityTypeFullName
