Have you tried www.findagrave.com its an excellent site, I did a search for a cemetery in Rhode Island for you and it came up with 190 matches with addresses, I would just type in your ancestors name and see what that throws up.

Each cemetery office has a "map" of the land; you just need to visit the cemetery while the office is open.
