The difference is racism deals with someone being judgemental and discriminatory because of someone elses race/ethnicity. Classism deals with someone being discriminatory because of someone elses social/economic class. Though it should be noted, the two can sometimes overlap.

Is discriminating against lower classes a form of racism?

NO. Note the word RACism. Also remember that "lower class" is in the mind of the beholder not a quality of a person or a people. Discriminating against lower classes is referred to as classism or class discrimination. It also works the other way with the people of the lower classes discriminating against those of the upper classes. Look at the French Revolution; it is a good example of both types of classism described above. Racism is discrimination based on a person's race or ethnic background.
