Colored gradient fill under curve

I know this is not the most elegant solution, but it works. Indeed, I am a beginner, so excuse me. My question is, how to simplify it all?
Here's what I want to achieve: I have a 2D plot and I want to make a gradient fill under curve. From one specific color to transparent. I tried to use white instead of transparent, but I want the grid to be visible. So I'm little lost here.
Did some search and I looked for some examples here and tried to modify them. So, this is an edited code that worked to fill a specific range. I spread it all over the axis. I also didn't want to fill the gradient over the edge of the curve, so I had to insert plot again. Yeah, that's not ideal at all, but as I said, it's working.
I believe that this can be done more easily. Could you advise me, please?
% Input data
x = 0:0.01:10*pi;
y1 = sin(x)+9;
y2 = repmat(5,length(y1),1);
figure1 = figure;
plot(x,y1);
grid on;
hold on;
% Fill the whole area - 0-31.4
val = [0,31.4];
for i = 1:2;
tmp = abs(x-val(i));
[~,idx(i)] = min(tmp);
end
id = idx(1):1:idx(2);
x2 = x(id);
y1a = y1(id);
y2a = y2(id);
y2a = y2a';
X=[x2,fliplr(x2)];
Y=[y1a,fliplr(y2a)];
% I set the transparency and removed borders.
% This is a workaround, I don't want to set the whole transparency.
h = fill(X,Y,Y,'LineStyle','none');
set(h,'facealpha',.5)
% Here is how I made the gradient between red and white.
% This is not very nice solution and I would like to simplify it.
% Of course, color bar is not visible.
set(gca,'Colormap',[1 1 1; '...a lot of data...' ;1 0 0]);
% Need to plot again because of overlaping
plot(x,y1);

Use alphaData property, set facealpha to interp
x = 0:0.2:10;
y = sin(x)+10;
xx = [x;x];
yy = [y;y*0];
surf(xx,yy,xx*0,...
'alphadata',yy,...
'facealpha','interp',...
'edgecolor','none');
line([0 x x(end) 0],[0 y 0 0],'linew',2)

I have also a related question: Is there any option how to set a different Alim for multiple surf plots? For example I have surf1 with height 20, another surf2 with height 10. Unfortunately gradient for both starts from the highest number 20 so I'm unable set it for each separately.
x = 0:0.1:50;
y = 5*sin(x)+5;
y2 = 5*sin(x+5)+15;
xx = [x;x];
yy = [y;y*0];
yy2 = [y2;y2*0];
Color1 = [0.72 0.28 1];
Color2 = [0 0.45 0.74];
figure
alim([0 max(y)]); % NOT WORKING!
s1=surf(xx,yy,xx*0,...
'alphadata',yy,...
'facealpha','interp',...
'edgecolor','none',...
"FaceColor",Color1);
hold on
alim([0 max(y2)]); % NOT WORKING!
s2=surf(xx,yy2,xx*0,...
'alphadata',yy2,...
'facealpha','interp',...
'edgecolor','none',...
"FaceColor",Color2);
