Is there a some way I can retrieve the class name?

Call it from a non-static method, i.e. normal object
method.

OR, since the method is static (i.e. you can't possibly be
dynamically calling it from an object of a more generic
type), you could just hardcode the class name there.
If not, explain why this would not work.
