How should I reject a younger student who wants to team up with me in a course, since he is too young and definitely not capable enough?

You should respectfully decline the offer, mentioning that although you value the enthusiasm behind it, partnering with a younger student is not possible as the workload and expectations of the course may be too difficult for them to handle. Further discussions about their preparation can be considered if they are older and more prepared.

It is polite to reject them in a professional and tactful way. You could suggest that you’d be willing to team up with them after they have had more course experience, or once they are of the same age range.
