If we use user sitemap, then it will benefit in keyword ranking?

A Sitemap is an XML file that lists the URLs for a site. It allows webmasters to include additional information about each URL: when it was last updated, how often it changes, and how important it is in relation to other URLs in the site.

A sitemap is a great way to ensure as many of your pages are crawled by Google with ease and speed. If you use Google Webmaster Tools you can see how many pages were crawled including how many pages were accepted - you want these numbers to be as close to each other as possible. A large gap in these numbers means there is an issue with a large chunk of your pages.

Two replies that didn't answer the question, so I will....
No sitemaps do not influence SEO performance

They do not influence SEO.
However, submitting an XML sitemap in the Search Console and adding one for users is a good idea (but not necessary).

Having XML sitemaps allows search engines to crawl and index a website sufficiently, and allowing all search engines to be notified of the site map by inserting it into the robots.txt file. In a nutshell, sitemaps enhance the ranking of a website in search engine results, thus boosting the SEO efforts.
