Both sentences are correct and have the same meaning. "Ich habe hunger." is colloquial and frequently used, "Ich bin hungrig." is also correct, but nobody speaks like that...

Both are correct and have the same meaning, ( more or less )
The difference between these two sentence is the grammar.
Ich / bin / hungrig
Subjekt / Verb / Adjektiv
Ich / habe / Hunger
Subjekt / Verb / direct object accusative (Akkusativobjekt).
Do note that "Hunger" is a Subject, and therefore capitalized.
