It can be probably muscular only which may be because of wrong posture of because of bad bed on which you sleep.

Dear friend Back pain at this age might be because of lack of exercises or bad posture which is very common in students. So dear friend instead of taking medicines go for little warm up exercise like a mild walk for 20 minutes or so. Usually after 15 or 20 days you will feel better...

Clinical examination by orthopaedic surgeon will give better opinion. Better to do CT scan to rule out bone problem.
