If you don't mind some hills...
From Oakland get onto Redwood Rd. that goes south through the east bay hills. Eventually Redwood Rd. will dump you in Castro Valley. If you get south of 580 and then head east you can hook up with Palomares Rd going south. When Palomares ends at Niles Canyon (narrow and busy so be careful on Niles) you can go east to Calaveras Rd and take it south again. Calaveras ends in Milpitas which is most of the way to San Jose.
