You can find out what exactly is mapped to S by issuing :map S and then bind this command to to whatever you like. To map it to s add a following line to your .vimrc

xmap s <Plug>VSurround

Look here: https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround/blob/master/plugin/surround.vim

So at a glance it looks like all the mapping are made separately, depending on the use case.

You can override those in your .vimrc. Just beware that s is a default vim mapping for "substitute char".
