Snackbar in Preferences Activity


I'm trying to use snackbar with custom xml in my preferences activity. And i'm doing something wrong, because i get a nullpointer exception. I think it has something to do with the view, or maybe it`s because i don't use coordinator layout. Here is my Java code:

@Override
public boolean onPreferenceChange(Preference preference, final Object newValue) {
    String key = preference.getKey();
    if (key.equals("distance")) {
        preference.setSummary((String) newValue);
        Snackbar snackbar = Snackbar
                .make(findViewById(R.id.snackbarPosition), "You choose " + newValue, Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                .setAction("UNDO", new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View view) {
                        if (newValue.equals("km")){
                            SharedPreferences sp = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(MyPrefs.this);
                            SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sp.edit();
                            editor.putString("distance", "miles");
                            editor.commit();
                        }else if (newValue.equals("miles")){
                            SharedPreferences sp = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(MyPrefs.this);
                            SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sp.edit();
                            editor.putString("distance", "km");
                            editor.commit();

                        }
                    }
                });

        snackbar.show();

Snackbar xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<View
    android:id="@+id/sb__divider"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="3dp" />

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/sb__inner"
    android:background="@color/transparent_black_percent_70"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/sb__text"
        style="@style/Snackbar.Text"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:text="You choose blah blah"
        android:ellipsize="end"
        android:focusable="true" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/sb__action"
        style="@style/Snackbar.Text.Action"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
        android:text="undo"
        android:gravity="right"
        android:focusable="true" />

</LinearLayout>

Preferences activity:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<ListPreference
    android:dialogTitle="Select a distance system"
    android:entries="@array/distanceEntries"
    android:entryValues="@array/distanceValues"
    android:key="distance"
    android:title="Distance" />

                                .setAction("Undo", mOnClickListener);
                        snackbar.setActionTextColor(Color.WHITE);
                        View snackbarView = snackbar.getView();
                        snackbarView.setBackgroundColor(Color.DKGRAY);
                        TextView textView = (TextView) snackbarView.findViewById(android.support.design.R.id.snackbar_text);
