If it is stolen and the person who stole it turns it off, there isn't anything you are going to be able to do to bring it back. What you can do is go to "Find My" and have it locate when it comes back online, and also place it in "Lost/Stolen Mode" so that it will put up a message to whoever sees it that it has been lost or stolen and give information on how to get a hold of you. You can also have it wipe the phone so that it will protect everything on the phone so nobody can access whatever data you have on it. This will wipe the phone and if anyone tries to activate it by setting it up it will not let them and essentially make it a paperweight, but there isn't really a way other than that to locate your phone and there is nothing that anyone is going to be able to do to track it any differently than this.
