Remove query string parameter to create a more user-friendly URL

Question

I have this .htaccess file and I have no knowledge with mod_rewrite,

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])/$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [NE,L,R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ /$1.php  [L]

What I want to achieve is to have localhost/viewticket/${id} instead of localhost/viewticket.php?id=123

I have tried many .htaccess rules but none worked except this one that hides .php in my URL.
