STL doesn't support textures (well, 'official' STL doesn't), it only encodes surface geometry, no colour, no textures.

Colours can be set (on the entire mesh) using the color element in a URDF.

If you really want to texture, you'll have to use another format (RViz also supports .dae (Collada) and Ogre .mesh).
