You can also make two random integers and verify if they are the same, this gives you more control over the probabilities.

Generate 2 random integers.

int a = rand.nextInt(range);
int b = rand.nextInt(range);

Then simply compare return the value.

return a == b; 

I also have a class you can use. RandomRange.java
