The stimulated emission of radiation takes place because it can. "Something" is stimulated, and, if properly stimulated, it reacts by the emission of radiation. If the thing being stimulated emits amplified light as a result of the stimulation, it's a laser (LASER - light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). By picking the right "stuff" to stimulate, and then by stimulating it "correctly" with a source, we can get it to lase, mase (microwaves) or something like that. In another answer to the question, the reason the emission takes place is because we set things up so that we will get this effect as a result of our choice of materials and arrangements. We want the effect cited, and we contrive (through applied physics and/or applied electronics) to get it. Got links if you want them. They are to related articles posted by our friends at Wikipedia, where knowledge is free.
