I have a string and a list like this-
s = "ball apple snake car"
l = ['banana','toy']
Now I want to add it to an existing list so that the list looks like-
l = ['banana','toy','ball' ,'apple' ,'snake ','car']

l = l + s.split(' ')
> ['banana', 'toy', 'ball', 'apple', 'snake', 'car']
With s.split(' '), you transform the string to a list of the words. With l +, you append that list to the end of the other list.

Well it seems the simplest answer is to split the string by the spaces and append it to the list:
s="ball apple snake car"
l=['banana','toy']
s_list = s.split()
for item in s_list:
l.append(item)

>>> l += s.split()
>>> l
['banana', 'toy', 'ball', 'apple', 'snake', 'car']
>>>
l.extend(s.split())
