Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the NE555N?

Yes. The symbol is adafruit:NE555N and the footprint Package_DIP:DIP-8_W8.89mm_SMDSocket_LongPads, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the NE555N?

DIP-8, with 8 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the NE555N datasheet?

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

Where can I order the NE555N?

JLCPCB lists it as part C5161, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the NE555N?

Parts like it in the library: the AIP555DA8.TB by Wuxi I-core Elec, the TLC555N(XBLW) by XBLW and the QN555PG by QNH. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
