how to redirect root to a specified path?

I want to redirect all incoming traffic from http://www.example.com https://www.example.com
to https://www.example.com/new

Step 1: enable overwrite in httpd.conf



    Options FollowSymLinks
    #AllowOverride None
    AllowOverride all

Step 2, generate .htaccess under root /

[root@localhost html]# pwd
vim /var/www/html/.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 443
RewriteRule ^(/)?$  https://www.example.com/new/$1 [R,L]
