An obvious example is $R'={0}$, but there are more interesting examples.
Suppose you found it; then call $e$ the identity of $R'$. By the property of the identity, $e^2=e$, so $e$ is an idempotent element of $R$.
Conversely, if $ein R$ is idempotent, then $eR$ satisfies your requirements (if $R$ is commutative).
If $R$ is not commutative, choose $eRe$, sometimes called a Peirce corner, see https://math.berkeley.edu/~lam/html/corner1.pdf
Not all rings have nontrivial idempotents, that is, different from $0$ and $1$. If $e$ is idempotent, then also $1-e$ is. In the case $R$ is commutative, there is a ring isomorphism
$$
Rcong eRtimes (1-e)R
$$
given by $rmapsto(er,(1-e)r)$. Any product of rings gives rise to idempotents: if $R=S_1times S_2$, then $(1,0)$ and $(0,1)$ are idempotents.
