The question is a bit ambiguous, but rainwater "disappears" in a number of ways, depending on where it lands.
If it lands on a hard surface such as a paved road, it will likely run off into storm drains or ditches or it will evaporate into the air to become water vapor, often referred to as humidity. On the other hand, if it falls on a more porous surface, such as a field, it will be absorbed into the ground, and will also be absorbed by plant leaves and roots.
Rain water could also fall into rivers and streams. In any case, it does not ever "disappear" but simply recirculates in various forms (rain, snow, clouds, humidity, rivers, lakes, dew) within our planetary ecological system. It is always somewhere...you just have to find it.
