Hello Edward Abraham Nalakurthi, 
You can try this - 
String StringTime = '2016-02-04T22:21:32.169Z';
List<String> DateAndTimeList = StringTime.split('T');
List<String> dayList = DateAndTimeList[0].split('-'); 
List<string> timeList = DateAndTimeList[1].split(':');
DateTime dt = DateTime.newInstance(Integer.valueOf(dayList[0]), Integer.valueOf(dayList[1]), Integer.valueOf(dayList[2]), Integer.valueOf(timeList[0]), Integer.valueOf(timeList[1]), Integer.valueOf(timeList[2].split('\\.')[0]));
System.debug('DateTime is : '+dt);
Pls, Let me know If it helps you. 

Thnaks,

Alternatively,
You can write a method to convert Sting into DateTime, and use that method where ever you want.  
public DateTime toDateTime(String DateTimevalue) {
    List<String> DateAndTimeList = DateTimevalue.split('T');
    List<String> dayList = DateAndTimeList[0].split('-');
    List<string> timeList = DateAndTimeList[1].split(':');
    DateTime dt = DateTime.newInstance(Integer.valueOf(dayList[0]), Integer.valueOf(dayList[1]),         Integer.valueOf(dayList[2]), Integer.valueOf(timeList[0]), Integer.valueOf(timeList[1]),  Integer.valueOf(timeList[2].split('\\.')[0]));
    return dt;
}

Thanks,

to get the datatime;

(DateTime)json.deserialize('"YYYY-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.SSSZ"', datetime.class)
EX:(DateTime)json.deserialize('"2020-07-10T02:48:37.327Z"', datetime.class
