If you care about your design and want to apply the style globally use this.

res/values/styles.xml

<item name="android:scrollbarThumbVertical">@drawable/scrollbar</item>

res/drawable/scrollbar.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:right="4dp"> <!-- Your Margin -->
        <shape>
            <solid android:color="@color/red500" /> <!-- Your Color -->
            <corners android:radius="2dp" /> <!-- Your Radius -->
            <size android:width="4dp" /> <!-- Your Width -->
        </shape>
    </item>
</layer-list>

Refer to documentation on android:scrollbarStyle attribute of View. The style you probably want to use is insideOverlay (in conjunction with android:paddingRight).

Something like

<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:paddingRight="50dip">
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/scrollable_table" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:scrollbarStyle="insideOverlay">
    .
    .
    .

Try enabling fast scroll, it does the job most of the time:

<ListView
    android:id="@+id/chapter_list"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:fastScrollEnabled="true"/>
