How to export private key from a keystore of self-signed certificate

Question

I just created a self-signed certificate on a linux box running tomcat 6.

I created the keys like this, valid for 10 years:

keytool -genkey -alias to

public static void main(String[] args) {

try {
        String keystorePass = "20174";
        String keyPass = "rav@789";
        String alias = "TyaGi!";
        InputStream keystoreStream = new FileInputStream("D:/keyFile.jks");
        KeyStore keystore = KeyStore.getInstance("JCEKS");
        keystore.load(keystoreStream, keystorePass.toCharArray());
        Key key = keystore.getKey(alias, keyPass.toCharArray());

        byte[] bt = key.getEncoded();
        String s = new String(bt);
        System.out.println("------>"+s);      
        String str12 = Base64.encodeBase64String(bt);

        System.out.println("Fetched Key From JKS : " + str12);

    } catch (KeyStoreException | IOException | NoSuchAlgorithmException | CertificateException | UnrecoverableKeyException ex) {
        System.out.println(ex);

    }
}
