How can I insert the data entered into the form in WordPress site to the MySQL database? I have created a form in the site. I am able to run PHP codes using snippets but I don't know how to update the database table from the values entered into the form in the WordPress site.

Reset to default 1Basically, i use Contact Form 7 and it's third party extension for storing values in database i.e.: https://wordpress/plugins/contact-form-cfdb7/.
Or, if you want to create a custom form and store the value in database you can Create a Custom Post Type and use wp_insert_post() function to insert your respective values.
