All rain falls from clouds, but clouds that you see which don't have rain falling from them are just not raining because the cloud has not become saturated with water vapour. When it does become so, it will rain.
How clouds usually form rain?
Condensation. That is how. Water evaporates, forms into clouds, and when they get too full of water, it falls back down as rain. White clouds never rain. Gray clouds will sometimes rain. The darker the cloud is, the more likely they will rain. The grayest/ darkest ones will undoubtedly also storm.
