Yes, you're looking for an external redirect, that is completely
different thing. Then this config will serve your needs:

server {
listen 80;
server_name sample.com;

root /var/www/sample/public_html;

location = / {
try_files /index.html =404;
}

location / {
return 302 /;
}
}

Reference:

- http://nginx.org/r/return
- http://nginx.org/r/try_files
- http://nginx.org/r/location
