To put it in simple terms, your hand is taking up the water's space. Your hand has a mass and so does the water inside the glass. If you put your hand inside the glass, the property of displacement occurs where the mass of water being displaced is the mass of your hand going inside the glass. This occurs because you are applying a force which will occupy space inside the glass forcing the water out. As well, the human body is more dense than freshwater which forces water out.
