Is the sentence fetch me a pile of water is correct?

No, the sentence "Fetch me a pile of water" is not grammatically correct. Here's why:

* Water doesn't form piles. Water is a liquid and takes the shape of its container.

* "Fetch" implies bringing something. You can't "fetch" something that doesn't have a defined shape or form.

Here are some better ways to phrase the request:

* "Bring me a pitcher of water."

* "Get me a glass of water."

* "Fill a bucket with water for me."

* "Could you please get me some water?"
