Dear Student
 
As i am able to get you, you mean parallel to ground(and not to incline).
Usually scholars shift their axes along and perpendicular to the incline for calculation. 
For this analysis just dont change attempt them. Let vertical be your Y-axis and horizontal be your X-axis. The time at which this vertical velocity vanishes(becomes zero ) is your answer. use 0 = uy -gt.
