Rhode Island was the 13th state to ratify the United States Constitution on May 29, 1790. Initially, Rhode Island was reluctant to join the Union and held out for three years before finally agreeing to ratify the document.
The question asserts something that is not true. Rhode Island did ratify the Constitution, on May 29, 1790. Rhode Island was the 13th of the original 13 states to ratify the Constitution. Their delay in ratifying was part of an attempt to lobby for the Bill of Rights.
