A person's kidneys receive about 20% of the heart's cardiac output (~1200mL/min). A person has about 6 - 8L of blood depending on gender, body size, etc. So on average it will take about 5 - 7 minutes for a person's entire blood volume to reach the kidneys.
But once the blood reaches the kidneys, it is the glomeruli that filters the blood. The average glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is 125mL/min or 180L/ 24hr. So it takes about 45 min - 1 hour for 6 - 8L of blood to be filtered.

What is the only part of the human body which has no blood supply?
All organs require a constant blood supply. Organs like your skin can last long periods with reduced blood volume but your heart, lungs and brain can't tolerate any significant loss with damage occurring. The above answer is correct for whole organs, but I'm guessing the answer the question is fishing for is the cornea. The cornea is considered an organ in terms of organ donation , although the whole eye would more accurately be considered the organ. The cornea is the outermost part of the eye and it does not have a blood supply, oxygen etc. just diffuses in and out of it which has the practical application of making it easier to transplant. The hair (after it leaves the hair follicle) and nails also do not get blood.
