The correct verb form here is...

“ will have stopped raining .” because

Here are two sentences . They are..

We hope ( that)

It …(stop) raining by 4 o' clock.

So, the second sentence has an indicator of ' by + time ' which follows with ' future perfect tense. “

Note : Though ' hope ' is here, the other sentence has an indicator of by +time where one may follow that sentence .

When ' no indicator ' is given in the sentence as ' by 4 o' clock ' then , the answer may be .

We hope it stops raining ..

We hope it will stop raining.

We hope it stopped raining ( using past tense expecting that rain might have stopped somewhere and we hope from here that it might have stopped there where we are not at the place of raining .)

So, indicators will help writing the correct verb form.
