Redis is a simple key-value datastore.
You can only access it through sending it commands.
It has no HDFS layer.

You probably need to write a small application that reads data from your
HDFS and sends it to Redis.

Redis is NOT a simple key-value datastore.

Memcached is a simple key-value datastore.  Key-value is the only data structure supported by memcached.

Redis is a simple data structure store.  One of the several data structures it can store is key-value.  Others are lists, hashes, unordered sets, geocoded sets, and scored sets.  

Also, it depends on your HDFS use case.  If it's under Spark, you can use this - https://github.com/RedisLabs/spark-redis
