Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the L4972AD?

Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:L4972AD and the footprint Package_SO:SOIC-20W_7.5x12.8mm_P1.27mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the L4972AD?

SO-20-300mil, with 20 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the L4972AD datasheet?

STMicroelectronics publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the L4972AD?

JLCPCB lists it as part C1355804, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the L4972AD?

Parts like it in the library: the L4973D5.1 by STMicroelectronics, the LT1339CSW#PBF by Analog Devices, the L4973D3.3 by STMicroelectronics and the LT1371CSW#TRPBF by Analog Devices. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
