How to ping root of forward lookup zone using CName?

We operate on domain.com, and I need a separate non-authoritative domain for app development, appdomain.com. To accomplish this, I created a forward lookup zone, with a CName to the server hosting the apps.

This allows https://myrandomapp.appdomain.com to work, but I cannot reach https://appdomain.com, because our internal DNS is still looking within domain.com.

I would prefer not making the alias record external which would of course work, but would like to find a way to make this work internally.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
