Between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter, there is the asteroid belt. This is made up of millions of small rocks that are in a direct orbit around the sun. Its not really a ring though, although there are millions of bodies here, there are large distances between them and the space at this point is still quite sparsely populated with them.

Not so much a "ring" as a "torus", sort of a doughnut or bagel shape.
