Not pre-installed, but Android Device Manager is free and does the job. There are also several tried-and-tested third-party solutions available in the Play Store.

Android Device Manager that Slug mentioned will do what you want. I also have the feature in my Lookout Security and my Sony Z1 also has the feature in Sony's software. If you just want anti theft / loss Android Device Manager will be ample. If you also want malware scanner etc try Lookout or Avast etc, most of the antimalware things have this feature too. To be honest I don't know that the rest of the features in the Antiviruses do a lot anyway, I just have it as EE gave the premium app free.

I will try the manager then although the reviews i read didnt seem too good.
