Pick top face, pick extrude tool, click 'r' (scale down), click 'q', click 'g' and move the vertical arrow down..

I recommend going through maya basics and polygonal modeling tuts:

I agree that you should look at some basics tutorials. There is no "hollow" option, although there are a number of ways to achieve your desired output. Nov2011 is describing making a cube, and then extruding the top face down to simulate the hollow area.
