Urinary stones or urinary calculi mean the same. But the more refined term is urinary calculi.

Calculus (plural calculi) is the medical term meaning stone.
Renal calculosis is one of many names for the condition or formation of kidney stones or renal calculi. Nephrolithiasis refers to the condition of having kidney stones or renal calculi. Urolithiasis refers to the condition of having calculi in the urinary tract (which also includes the kidneys), which may form or pass into the urinary bladder. Ureterolithiasis is the condition of having a calculus in the ureter, the tube connecting the kidneys and the bladder. The term bladder stones usually applies to urolithiasis of the bladder in non-human animals such as dogs and cats.

It is simply kidney stones or renal calculi.
I'm not sure what you mean by "more medical". Renal means having to do with the kidneys, and calculus is Latin for "pebble". Renal calculi are, therefore, "kidney stones" ... but I don't see how that's "more medical."
Yes, there is a difference between a rock and a stone. A rock is a naturally occurring solid material composed of minerals, while a stone is a small piece of rock that can be used for construction or decoration.

Urolithiasis is the medical term used to describe stones occurring in the urinary tract. Other frequently used terms are urinary tract stone disease and nephrolithiasis. Doctors also use terms that describe the location of the stone in the urinary tract. For example, a ureteral stone-or ureterolithiasis-is a kidney stone found in the ureter. Source: Wikipedia
