I think (Rhino) will help you
import STL file in Rhino
convert Mesh to NURBS Surfae by MeshtoNURBS command in command bar finaly you can save your model in iges or step format .
SolidWorks lets you open .stl files for editing. the SW is expensive thought. USD 8 9 K per license. here is how:

Hey there,
There's a file converted in Workbench now. You just select a file and what you want to export it as.
Feel free to email me with any questions - bobby@grabcad.com.
Have a great day.
I was searching on this subject and found this link. It worked well for me.

I do this a lot in my line of work. Geomagic is really the best option. The software is expensive but you might be able to get a trial version. I think they even have a snap-in module for Solidworks now.
