Why might you want to redirect the WooCommerce URL? There is a handful of reasons why you might want to do this.

// Redirect WooCommerce Shop URL
function wpc_shop_url_redirect() {
    if( is_shop() ){
        wp_redirect( home_url( '/custom-page/' ) ); // Assign custom internal page here
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'wpc_shop_url_redirect' );

In the above code, when the function is run it returns the home URL with home_url() and then adds on a slug of the page you want – For this example we have the WooCommerce shop URL being redirected to a custom page slug.
