How to get redirected page url using PHP

Question

I am using file_get_contents() function to get a page source. When I am trying to get the source of http://example.com, which is internally redirected to http://example-new.com. Here I am getting the source of second URL. Is there any solutions to get second URL to identify to which URL it is redirected to.

Just make request, wait for 200 and check url. I would recommend reading about curl.
