You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# To externally redirect create.php to create
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(create)\.php[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=302,L,NE]

# To internally forward create to create.php
RewriteRule ^(create)/?$ $1.php [L,NC]

I see the loop. But I thought [R=302,L] and [L] alone should prevent this problem. Thanks again !
On server works, but on local computer with wamp does not work. OK, seems something wrong with my local computer (create.php is not in root).
Yes this rule will work when create.php is in DocumentRoot. Otherwise RewriteBase and RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(create)\.php[\s?] [NC] lines need to be changed.
If create.php is in subfolder, then changed to RewriteBase /subfolder/ and RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(subfolder/create)\.php[\s?] [NC] Yes, seems works. Just question regarding R=302. I changed to R=301 and it works. I "moved" create.php to create permanently (not temporary)
i have same problem but now working thanks anubhava
