Alias a folder in localhost

In http://localhost I have a folder named _admin

When I type http://localhost/admin practically I want to open http://localhost/admin/_admin but not with a redirect, I want with a htaccess alias.

make a soft link. 

ln -s _admin/ admin

So when you access admin, you will get contents of _admin

OR

You can use mod_alias module if you are using Apache web server.

The Alias directive allows documents to be stored in the local filesystem other than under the DocumentRoot. URLs with a (%-decoded) path beginning with URL-path will be mapped to local files beginning with directory-path. The URL-path is case-sensitive, even on case-insensitive file systems.

Example:

Alias /image /ftp/pub/image
<Directory /ftp/pub/image>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
