A little clarification: Do you want to retrieve a list of Contacts that apper in Contact View named "My Contacts"?  Or do you want to describe the Contact View (named "My Contacts") itslef?

You can get a list of Contacts that appear in "My Contacts" view, using the following code:

Code:
List<Contact> contacts = [select Id, FirstName, LastName from Contact where OwnerId = :UserInfo.getUserId()];


This statement will return the Contacts that appear in the "My Contacts" view of the user, who executes the code.  If you want to retrieve the list of Contacts that appear in the "My Contacts" of a particular user, then replace UserInfo.getUserId() with the ID of that User.  Hope this helps!

Views are not directly accessible in Apex -but you can emulate the view by creating a soql query with corresponding filters.
