You can use sql query in SqlCommand object.
//C# CODE

private void btnStart_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlCommand cmd1 = new SqlCommand("backup database CRM to disk = 'e:\\CRM.bak'",con);
con.Open();
cmd1.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
MessageBox.Show("BACKED UP SUCCESSFULLY");

}

//CRM is DATABASE NAME here
