You may be thinking of viruses. They are not technically living because they are not made of cells, and have none of the interior structure of cells, but they do have DNA or RNA. Viruses high-jack living cells by inserting their own genetic material and forcing the cell to become a virus factory until it bursts and releases the new viruses. Viruses do not reproduce by themselves. They have to take over a living cell to do that in a process called replication.

Only living things can reproduce so far as our scientific knowledge has determined. Rocks and light and stars and metal cannot reproduce.
