Can a device be added to my iCloud account using the serial number?

I'm hoping to find an option to get an iPad added to my iCloud account without having the device in hand. Situation - my new iPad was stolen prior to getting it set up with the Find My iPad app. I have the original packaging with serial number and have already alerted Apple of the situation. Since it was a car break in the police are inverstigating and have entered the S/N into the 'stolen property database'. The device does not have the Find my iPad app installed but I did have location services turned on. At least it was turned on when I last had it... At the advice of the investigator handling my case I'm looking for options to get the iPad associated to my account. Is this possible???

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately there is no "Find my iPhone" service showing up under my iCloud settings. And no way to add a device when viewing my iCloud account when logged in from my computer. From everything I've found online, including other posts in this forum (which I hadn't seen when I posted mine) it appears the 'Find my Device' app must be set up on the device if you want to try to locate it. So unless they update this feature I guess I - and many others - are out of luck
