Hi Anshuman,

>> https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/create-a-custom-object-quick-look/create-a-custom-object

For creating a custom object with your needs you can follow the above link and modify it to your needs.

For the trigger prat you can use the below snippet and modify it accordingly:
  
trigger AccountDelTri on Account (before delete) {
if(trigger.isbefore && trigger.isdelete){
list<Accounts_Delete_Log> RecordstoI = list<Accounts_Delete_Log>();
for (Account TempA : Trigger.old)
        {
           Accounts_Delete_Log tempADL= new Accounts_Delete_Log();
tempADL.Deleted=true;
tempADL.AccountName= TempA.Name;
tempADL.DeletedDate= Date.today();
tempADL.DeletedTime = Datetime.now();
RecordstoI.add(tempADL);
        }//end main for
if(RecordstoI.size()>0)
{insert RecordstoI;}
}
}//end trigger

To modify date you can check this link: https://www.salesforcecodecrack.com/2020/04/format-dates-and-time-using-apex-in.html

Please do note this is a sample snippet and you need to modify it accordingly.
