Take it to the courts. If you are stable, can show the parent is harmful to your sibling, then you have a very good chance. Siblings get custody of younger siblings all the time. Getting a pro-bono lawyer right away is the first step, unless you have the money for a lawyer.
If you are legal age and there's a reason why your little brother needs to be under your care, then you need to take it to court. If there's not really a reason...like "just because they want to" then the child must be at an appropiate age of 13 I believe.
If you live in the US, the only way in which that would occur is if you can prove your parents to be unfit. You must be atleast 18 years of age. You have to be able to give them good education, food. Also They ask for you to prove that you can have medical and dental care for the child and a stable home for them.
You can get custody of your cousin's infant if you can prove that person is neglectful of the child or the cousin is in prison or the cousin is dead. You can get a free consultation with a family law attorney on the first visit. See your local yellow pages to find a family law attorney. It will help your case if the child wants and needs to live with you. If you cannot get custody try for guardianship.
Absent the consent of both biological parents, it is very hard to gain custody of a child that is not biologically relate to you. An adult who wants custody of a child but is not their birth parent faces an uphill battle. Courts rarely grant non-parents these rights because it is believed that the birth parents provide the best guidance and most attachments to the children. It is only possible for a non-parent adult to win custody of a child if they can show that they are:
* psychologically the child's guardian, or
* the biological parent(s) are unfit to be parents.
Both of these hurdles are extremely difficult to clear and even if they are met, the non-parent custody must still be shown to be in the child's best interests.

No one apart from the mother can obtain "custody" of a fetus. Custody battles must wait until the child has been born. You can file for paternity testing, although it would probably be best to wait until the child is born before doing that. If the tests prove the child is yours, you can then file for custody.
