The moment you add potassium iodide solution to lead nitrate, it will result in the formation of lead iodide precipitate.
It will comprise a bright yellow colour. It will in the later stage settle out to be an insoluble precipitate.
A balanced chemical equation with regards to the same will be:
2KI(AQ) + PB(NO3)2 (AQ) → PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(AQ)

(a) Potassium Nitrate and Lead Iodide (yellow color precipitate which insoluble in water) is formed
(b) Double displacement , precipitation reaction
(c) 2 KI + Pb(NO₃)₂ -----------> 2 KNO₃ + PbI₂
