.htaccess

Hi, I'm using htaccess rewrite engine to make urls look nice, from www.mysite.com/index.php?pag=home to www.mysite.com/pag/home

it works fine with this rule

RewriteRule ^pag/([^/]+)$ index.php?pag=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

but when I go to www.mysite.com it redirects me to www.mysite.com/index.php is there a way to redirect to www.mysite.com/pag/home?

I tried

redirect 301 /index.php http://www.mysite.com/pag/home

but when i try to go to www.mysite.com the browser gives my "page do not exsist error"
