The case must be heard in the court in the county in which you were arrested. The only exception to this would be if you could convince the court that a change of venue is necessary for you to get a fair trial. Probation could be transferred to the area in which you live. An Alternative would be to hire a attorney to appear in court for you. The times I have been present in court when drunk in public cases were held, the court gave a sentence equal to the time in jail prior to the appearance in court.
