If you must create a model via Java you can take the following approach…

Use the class org.alfresco.repo.dictionary.M2Model to create a model…

M2Model model = M2Model.createModel("test:mymodel");
model.createNamespace("mynamespace", "test");
model.createImport(NamespaceService.DICTIONARY_MODEL_1_0_URI, NamespaceService.DICTIONARY_MODEL_PREFIX);
model.createImport(NamespaceService.CONTENT_MODEL_1_0_URI, NamespaceService.CONTENT_MODEL_PREFIX);
‍‍‍‍‍

You can also create a model from an existing XML file, allowing you to edit the model via code.

Then you can compile the model using…

dictionaryDAO.putModel(model);

where dictionaryDAO is a reference to bean id "dictionaryDAO".  This validates the model and makes it available for use by the other services.

But in my Source Alfresco download from internet haven't class org.alfresco.repo.dictionary.M2Model.   and I use AlfrescoCommunity-2.0.  .
