Perhaps ‘prman’ is not in your PATH variable?
See these docs regarding setup for RMANTREE and PATH variables:

Thank you very much
But where i should go in order to adjust that : From where
In order for Houdini to be able to find all the necessary RenderMan tools, first you will need to set a few environment variables:
ensure the RMANTREE is set to the installed version of RenderMan, for example:
export RMANTREE=/opt/pixar/RenderManProServer-20.0
ensure the search path includes the bin subdirectory of RenderMan, for example:
export PATH=$PATH:$RMANTREE/bin
set the HOUDINI_DEFAULT_RIB_RENDERER to the desired version, for example:
export HOUDINI_DEFAULT_RIB_RENDERER=prman20.0
After setting up these three environment variables, Houdini should be able to use RenderMan.
Thank you

It depends on which Windows you are running. Here are the step-by-step instructions (or search for “setting environment variables on windows”):

When setting the path variable, append a semicolon to what's already there and then specify the path to renderman's bin subdirectory.
As for the RMANTREE variable, it is probably already set there by RMan's installer.
