In the Save for Web window, at the very top right corner you'll find a small menu icon. Click it, select "Optimize to File Size..."

Here is Adobe's documentation:

Choose File > Save For Web & Devices.

select the preview you want to optimize.
(Optional) Select the slices you want to optimize and the file format you want to use.
Select Optimize To File Size from the Optimize menu (to the right of the Preset menu).
Enter the desired file size.
Select a Start With option:

Current Settings Uses the current file format.

Auto Select GIF/JPEG Automatically selects the optimal format
depending on image content.
Select a Use option to specify whether you want to apply the specified file size to current slice only, to each slice in the image,
or to all slices. Click OK.
