Sometimes this error shows due to versioning issue. copy and past the below code in developer console. If it runs from developer console. 

Then update you api version of the class, this will probably solve your problem.
  
Note n = new Note();
try {               
    n.ParentId='a017F0000015hib';
    n.Body='she is ok';
    n.Title='New Note';
    insert n;
} catch (DmlException e) {
    system.debug(e.getmessage());
}

FYI: Prent is ID of the object associated with the note.​

On which object you are creating note. May the object does not support notes.

i think your code is correct . may be issue in 'a017F0000015hib' plz check with  account id to test . if that ok then may be the id which you have assigned not given permission. by the way this id belong to which object

hi @ Waqar,
Still same error in developer console

Hi,
Every Org has its own prefix for sObject except standard object. So we can't identify custom object by prefix. 

I tested for Account and is working fine for me.

copy and paste of an account account on parent Id 
 Or check below code in developer console. 
Note n = new Note();
try {               
Account acc = [Select Id from account limit 1];    
n.ParentId=acc.Id;
    n.Body='she is ok';
    n.Title='New Note';
    insert n;
} catch (DmlException e) {
    system.debug(e.getmessage());
}

Are you sure the that the below line is triggering the issue? It is on line line 163? 
n.ParentId='a017F0000015hib';
Try deleting the APEX file and add it again.
