Could a gas giant's moon have stable rings?

The planet orbits a supermassive gas giant, almost double the size of Jupiter. But the planet orbiting it is also supposed to have rather large rings in my story.

I expect the answer to be no, because of the gravity from the gas giant. Am I right in this assumption? And if I am right is there any way to make it possible for the planet to have rings? In a plausible / semi-plausible way.
