You are not going to be able to find the owner entire by yourself. You will need some help and that help can from the owner of the iPhone in the form of a lost message displayed on the iPhone's screen. If the cellular service is still active on it, then the owner may call it and you can either answer the call or call the displayed number. There are not many options here. You can also choose to drop it off at your local police station or at an Apple Store. Note, that neither one of these entities are going to actively look for the owner because both entities will be subject to the same options as you have.
