Here is the basic code you need to do what you asked. You just need to create a .htaccess or add it to an existing one, probably at the top of the file.

Options +FollowSymLinks
Options +SymlinksIfOwnerMatch

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subdomain.website.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.subdomain.website.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url]http://http://www.website.com/~subdomain/[/url] [R=301,L]
