Is it possible to create custom URL for the personal Google+ profile? I did it for one of my business pages but I don't know how to do it for my personal profile.

Hi, you can use this Google rules!
Rules for getting a custom URL
There are a few rules to keep in mind when you’re trying to get a custom URL. If you’re having trouble, make sure:

• You have ten or more followers (people who have added you to their circles)
• Your account is at least 30 days old
• Your profile has a profile photo
• Your account is in good standing

 

You can read this manual - Get a custom URL for your Google+ profile https://support.google.com/plus/answer/2676340?hl=en

 

Note: once you change your default Google + URL to your unique URL you cannot change it back after. Choose wisely

 

Would you know if the backlinks that you developed from the original account get redirected to new page?

 

As others mentioned yes you can, you need to fulfill certain criteria before that is possible. Follow the instructions above but also be careful, once you go custom you can not go back. Some people use their own personal G+ for business as well so be careful of what you do now.
Good luck.
