A stone is more dense and heavier than water, so it sinks.

If you were to hollow out the top of the stone into a shape like a bowl, it would then be mostly filled with air, and might float. That is the same idea as with boats - even steel boats float if they are hollowed out to where they are light enough. I have even seen competitions to see who can build the best concrete boat.
