You can try CL_HTTP_CLIENT class for this. Not sure your exact requirement, but you could give a try. There is an instance method IF_HTTP_CLIENT~AUTHENTICATE to send the user id password. If your URL supports, it might work.

Rest of some sample coding. May be helpful for you.

DATA : lr_client TYPE REF TO if_http_client.

        CALL METHOD cl_http_client=>CREATE_BY_URL

          EXPORTING

            url          = lv_url

*           SERVICE       = '80'

*           SCHEME        = '1'

*           PROXY_HOST    = WF_PROXY

*           PROXY_SERVICE = WF_PORT

          IMPORTING

            client        = lr_client.

        CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

          EXPORTING

            name  = '~request_method'

            value = 'POST'.

        CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

          EXPORTING

            name  = '~server_protocol'

            value = 'HTTP/1.1'.

        CALL METHOD lr_client->request->set_header_field

          EXPORTING

            name  = '~url'

            value = lv_url.

CALL METHOD lr_client->send

          EXCEPTIONS

            http_communication_failure = 1

            http_invalid_state         = 2.
