You can find a list of available extensions in Dovecot wiki
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve
and include such extensions like this:
require ["fileinto","regex","vacation"];

The nesting of the curly brackets seems to be wrong:
The inner branch which should trigger the redirects
will never be reached, since it resides inside of the
bracket of condition 'if header :contains "Sender" "alom-alert@"'.

I'm thinking of something like this (without having checked syntax):

if header :contains "Sender" "alom-alert@" {
  keep;
}
redirect "my at emailid on server";
redirect "xyz at gmail.com";
redirect "abc at tbc.edu";
stop;
