The Ural mountains are a theoretical boundary only. They are not on a plate boundary. They have traditionally marked the border between Europe and Asia, but this is an historical and notional boundary, from before our ideas of continents were based on tectonic plates. In fact Europe and Asia are one unit, often called Eurasia.
