First, it should be noted that this is a metaphor-- an idiom that describes a behavior no longer used in society. More than a hundred years ago, when upper-class men wore hats, there may have been an actual custom that symbolized entering the political "ring" (the metaphor comes from boxing, where one person challenged another by throwing his hat into the boxing ring). These days, hats are not as common, nor is throwing them. Potential candidates in politics decide they want to run for a higher office, such as senator or president, and the media use that old expression of "throwing his (or her) hat in the ring" to convey the idea that the person has decided to enter the race and will try to win it. Candidates have different reasons for making the decision to run for office, and they announce their candidacy in different ways, but the expression about hats can still be seen, especially in the print media.

What is the hat in the ring inauguration?
I am not sure there is any such expression in English. The expression is "to throw one's hat in the ring." This is an idiom that comes from the sport of boxing and goes back to the mid-1800s, when a person who wanted to challenge the champion would throw a hat into the boxing ring to signify the desire for a match. It became a political idiom, referring to a new candidate letting the public know that he (and later, she) was going to start a campaign for office and try to defeat the incumbent. The inauguration, however, is when the person who was elected is officially sworn in. Thus, your expression would not make sense, because throwing your hat in the ring means you have not yet been elected and are offering a challenge to the incumbent.

When do candidates throw their hats into the ring?
Actually, these days they do not. This is just a metaphor. But the expression goes back to the era in the 1800s when boxing was very popular; to make it known that someone wanted to challenge a boxer to a fight, the man would throw his hat into the boxing ring. Today, the expression survives, but not literally, since most men do not wear hats any more; actually throwing one's hat into a boxing ring is no longer a common way to issue a challenge to one's potential competitor. Thus, when candidates decide they want to announce their candidacy for office, the media may say that Candidate X is "throwing his (or her) hat into the ring," but it's just an expression.
