Try to get a software called parted magic. its linux based and you should easily format the pen drive.

Hello, friend! After experiencing similar RAW file system external hard disk data loss troubles, I know the RAW file system drive often cannot be immediately formatted to restore its file system from RAW to NTFS. Otherwise, you may lose something original permanently. Therefore, stop writing anything fresh on this RAW format flash drive and go recover lost data from RAW flash drive with RAW format drive data recovery software. And then, back up all rescued data on another safe drive or location well.
And, at last, format this RAW file system flash drive to see whether it is still workable or not.
Learn to be careful about crucial drive data and make drive data backups well in the future.

Pen drive display free space 0 byte and used space also 0 byte

Try formatting the drive. Assuming Windows XP, just open your "my computer" icon, right-click on the device and choose format. Be aware, formatting will remove any data you may have had on there previously.

If you're using another OS, or if it's an existing drive, please re-state your question giving further details (what OS, what you are trying to retrieve, etc).
