Pourquoi dit-on "c'est un charmant jeune homme" au lieu de "il est un charmant jeune homme" ?
c'est un charmant jeune homme

Il/elle est is (almost) never followed by an article-noun (it is French , so there are exceptions).
‘C’est un charmant jeune homme’ is grammatically correct. ‘Il est un charmant jeune homme’ is not.
"C'est" vs "Il/Elle est" to say it is/she is/he is in French
