HIV is a bloodborne pathogen -- it is transmitted through blood. If you have no cuts or abrasions on your hand, I'd say that there is no chance you could be infected.
That said, there is the possibility that you have a cut or abrasion that is too tiny for you to see. I'd get tested if I were you.

As far as I know , the aids virus needs direct contact at the time of blood/semen transfer ... the aids virus dies if exposed to air. There are some rumours saying AIDS virus was contracted through syringe at Cinema halls...such claims are bogus coz aids virus dies if it is exposed to air . Same with semen , unless it is from an intercourse the chances are almost nil . And even that too has to be thorugh abrasion / cuts in your body ...
Just to be safe you can take an Elisa test to ensure this .
PS: there are numerous articles you can google to confirm this ...
Good Luck

A previous answer in incomplete: HIV is a blood borne infection. However it is also transmitted in body fluids especially semen.
However if there is no break in the skin, infection in unlikely

if you didn't have any cuts or abrasions, then where in the world is this question coming from ? you should REALLY read up on aids and how its transmitted, or you are going to end up your own worst enemy
