You can do that by using ownerId record. But it should be  a salesforce user. So first you've to fetch the user based on your out of the box value and then use it for ownerId.

@HTTPPOST
        global static void creatingRating(string srating, id cuserid )
        {
        
           string email=RestContext.request.params.get('email');
           system.debug('-------------------'+srating );
            system.debug('-------------------'+cuserid );
           ID cby=RestContext.request.params.get('uid');
                rating__c rec=new rating__c();
                rec.rating__C=srating;
                //res.ownerId=cuserid;
                insert rec;

Ohh! I thought you are talking about native object. If it is custom then let me know if it helps : https://developer.salesforce.com/forums?id=906F00000008vNoIAI

I think that line should be 

rec.OwnerId

you are doing res.OwnerId

Good catch. May be it will solve the problem, but I think I was also stuck with the same problem once where I was not able to update/access ownerId and that problem is with the custom objects.

Let's hope it works for him.
