After Effects is fundamentally a 2D software - however there are various ways of simulating or working with 3D objects, using plugins - but those all cost.
A very basic option is to search for a '3D ball texture map' like this:
create a layer from it - and then apply the 'CC sphere' effect.
This will give you a 2D simulation of a 3D sphere. It's basic, but it might meet your need.
