Putting it all together we get the following.. Wait for it all to load, select only links starting with http or https, check if the link point to the same domain (internal) or another domain (external), add appropriate target if match found..

$(window).load(function() {
    $('a[href^="http"]').attr('target', function() {
      if(this.host == location.host) return '_self'
      else return '_blank'
    });
});
