High @gk1610 and welcome to the forum.

No, I'm afraid that doesn't have any exterior features which would suggest it's a meteorite. There's no evidence of fusion crust and the pock-marked surface (with at least one very deep cavity) is not at all characteristic of meteorites. It looks like you have cut or filed one end to expose the interior and that doesn't have any features which would suggest meteorite either. You haven't said anything about density, streak testing, magnetic properties etc, but it's not really necessary here. This is just an earth rock which has seen a lot of weathering or water-tumbling.
