For values of $p$ distinct from $2$, are $\ell^p$ and $L^p [0,1]$ isometric under some conditions? In that case, what is the isometry $T:\ell^p \to L^p$?

Nontrivial. See, say, this. – Yai0Phah Oct 22 '15 at 18:32

This is not true, a proof can be found in Theorem 1.11 in the lecture notes.
In particular, one can show that $\ell^2$ is isometric to a subspace of $L^p([0,1])$, $1\le p < \infty$, but not isomorphic to a subspace of $\ell^p$, $p \ne 2$.

For $p>1$, Kchinchine's inequality implies that the closed linear span of Rademacher functions in $L_p[0,1]$ is a complemented subspace isomorphic to $\ell_2$.
However, every complemented subspace of $\ell_p$ is isomorphic to $\ell_p$.
