Cameron's plan to reform the EU was unsuccessful.

What does that mean for the EU referendum which is to be held in the UK in June?

It has become more likely that the UK leaves the EU because Cameron, who actually wants the UK to stay in the EU, is now in the position that

a) he has to explain to the voters that already by now it is beneficial for the UK to stay in the EU despite his reform plans have failed

or

b) he keeps claiming that he successfully reformed the EU which the voters won't buy from him.

Especially scenario b) bears the risk that the EU referendum mutates into a referendum for or against Cameron instead of for or against Brexit.

It has not become easier for Cameron to keep the UK in the EU.

Btw, what would that mean if the UK leaves the EU?

It has 7 alternatives to EU membership as described here:
