I would like to set dynamic line width and it should be scaled by the value "Stroke width".
When I set the value to 0.15, it will be less than 0.15 if $length is too small. I need a function to get the value set in "Stroke width" so that I can modify it directly in "Stroke width" instead of in Expression String builder.
CASE
WHEN ($length < 1) THEN ($length * 0.15 / 1)
WHEN ($length >= 1) THEN (0.15)
END

You refer to "stroke width" in double quotation marks, which makes it seem like your attribute table has a field called "stroke width." If that's the case, you can use this field in an expression, and scale the line width based on the value in the stroke width field.
If, as I suspect, you're actually talking about the stroke width box in the layer styling panel 
, then you can't do what you're asking for. QGIS just isn't designed that way. The value set in the stroke width box is not available in the expression builder. The Data-Defined Override setting will always override the value you enter into the stroke width box. See the second and third definitions of "override" from dictionary.com:
- to disregard, set aside, or nullify; countermand
- to take precedence over; preempt or supersede
What you can do instead is define a custom variable in the layer properties. Eg, you could call your variable default_stroke_width. Once the variable is defined, you can use it in the expression builder with @default_stroke_width.
Even though this variable has the words "stroke width" in its name, it's not connected to the stroke width box in the style panel. When you want to change the default_stroke_width value, you'll have to go back into layer properties and edit the variable. This is probably less convenient than editing the expression itself.
