If it's in your house, as AJL said, just call it from another phone.
If you don't have another phone, just use
'Find your phone'
<https://myaccount.google.com/find-your-phone>
on any device.
That will already play a notification sound (twice), but if you miss
that, just click on 'Play sound' and it will sound your ringtone on your
'lost' device ('device, not 'phone', because it also works for tablets).
