It can't be seen at the moment from earth as it is on the opposite side of our solar system. It is where the sun is. Give it a few month though and we will be able to see it again as the earth progresses around the sun.
Uranus is the Latin name for the Greek god Ouranos, who was the primordial sky god and father of the Titans in Greek mythology. Uranus is associated with the heavens and the night sky in ancient mythology.
As seen from Earth in the night sky, all objects change their position. There is also the factor of the Earth's rotation. Most objects in the sky ... day or night ... appear to rise in the east and travel across the sky toward the west. (You may have noticed the daily behavior of the sun.) So when Uranus can be seen, the direction to look for it in will depend on the time and also where you are on the Earth, as that too can make a difference. There are many websites, like Heavens-Above.com which will give you locations of objects in the night sky when they can be seen.

You need to get an emphemeris, or a listing of planetary positions and find out which constellation Uranus is in, then find out when that constellation is in the night sky. Uranus is quite faint, but you can see it without a telescope if you have good conditions and good eyes. The darker the sky, the better.
