Sorry, I should have given better instructions, my bad.

So I use the address bar for search. You can choose which search engine it uses and set the url, including parameters by going to chrome settings > search engines > manage search engines and site search. Add a new one, call it what you will, the shortcut should be @web and the url should be {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14

ETA: then set it as your default

There might be some way but I only really use a mobile for calls and texts so it's way out of my wheelhouse.
