Like resistance is when there is hindrance towards the motion of electrons in an object. Then on similar lines what is inductance?

The best way to imagine how an inductor works is a water propeller analogy.

The current speeds the propeller and while its speeding generates resistance, if the current stops the propeller will still move the current while its slowing down, if the current goes against the proppeller it will oppose more resistance but also try to chanage the way its spinning.

If the current changes the proppeller will oppose resistance to the change while also changing to match the current.

Inductors offer resistance in alternating current, in direct current they offer no resistance.
