Removing the .php extension with mod_rewrite

by 
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule something something.php [L]

http://example.com/something will be handled as if it was a request for something.php

To redirect all requests that are not a physical file to the same name but with .php:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule (.*) $1.php [L]
