Size of bitmap in Android

I have to use drawable in my code with icon, because I want to set background in my holder.

holder.itemView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.my_drawable);

itemView is instance of View.

Unfortunately I cannot set size attributes for in xml.

my_drawable.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item>
        <color android:color="@color/background"/>
    </item>
    <item android:right="16dp">
        <bitmap
            android:src="@drawable/ic_android"
            android:layout_width="18dp"
            android:layout_height="18dp"
            android:gravity="right|center_vertical"/>
    </item>
</layer-list>

Question
