Water clay refers to water based clay, as opposed to oil based clay. Generally when people talk about water clay, yes, they mean the kind you have to fire in a kiln. Earthenware, raku clay, even porcelain.
I get mine from here:

But you can usually buy it at fine art supply stores (think Pearl, not Michaels) and college bookstores.
Usually I see it for sale in 25 pound bags (roughly 6″x6″x12″), with prices ranging from $10-$20 a bag, depending on clay type.
