Hezekiah is in the book of kings and too in the book of Isaiah. I should know cause my son's names Hezekiah and I did my research on it and yes I had to skim through the whole bible, but it is in there and in The Bible he's a good king then when he dies his son Manasseh takes over and he's an evil king.

Chizkiah (Hezekiah) was one of the righteous Kings of Judah during the First Temple era, contemporary with Isaiah. His great-grandfather was the righteous Uziah, his grandfather was the righteous Yotham, and his great-grandson was the righteous Josiah.

Hezekiah lived in turbulent times, during which the neighboring Ten Tribes were exiled by Shalmanesser of Assyria. Shalmanesser attacked Hezekiah's kingdom as well, making deep forays into his territory and taunting his messengers. Isaiah prophesied that God would come to the aid of the righteous Hezekiah; and his words were soon borne out.

See also the Talmud, Berakhot 10a-b; Isaiah ch.38, and Proverbs 25:1.

Who in the Bible besides Hezekiah was a King and a prophet since Hezekiah is considered a major prophet?

King Hezekiah was not a prophet. You're thinking of Ezekiel, who was a prophet but not a king. None of the Israelite kings was a prophet in the Jewish or Christian Tradition, despite God speaking to Solomon once in a dream. Only in the Islamic Tradition are Kings David and Solomon considered to be both kings and prophets.
