For that you need to convert C-i to a prefix key. This seems to work:

(defvar cikm (make-keymap))
(global-set-key (kbd "C-i") cikm)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-i C-s") (lambda () (interactive) (message "hi!")))

Please note that Emacs has some guidelines about choosing keybindings:
some are reserved for users, some for external packages and some others
for Emacs itself.

See the "Key Bindings" node in the Emacs manual.
