The "new" keyword not only for Scanner class but for any class in Java helps in creating the instance(object) of the class. So "new" keyword is responsible for object creation and the object is created in the heap memory but the reference variable pointing it is stored in the stack.

New keyword is used to create an object of the class If you have Student class then you create a object of it like this Student obj = new Student (); Scanner is also a class in java it is in built-in class in java when we use this class we create an object of it like the Scanner obj = new Scanner(System.in);
