If a person is slim it's common to be able to see the pulse on the stomach when lying down. For many people, especially young slim people, this is normal.
If it is a new occurrence and it never happened before, there's a possibility it could be an abdominal aortic aneurysm (a weakening in the blood vessel wall). If that is the case there is a risk for rupture, which would lead to life-threatening internal bleeding. Older people with high blood pressure are more at risk for this. There could be other things it could be. See a doctor if you are concerned.
