I think you want to use a syn-region, you may want a matchgroup=shRedir
to use the normal highlighting for the start and end patterns.

Yikes, start with something even simpler than that until you get it
working and then build it up from there. I wouldn't even try to script
it yet. I have the following (and only the following) in my
~/.vim/after/sh.vim
unlet b:current_syntax
syn include @phpSyntax syntax/php.vim
syn region shPhp matchgroup=shRedir contains=@phpSyntax
\ start=+<<\z(.*\)\ze\n.*vim: ft=php+ end=+\z1+
And it highlights the following sh/php fragment correctly.
php <<EOF
<?php # vim: ft=php ?>
<?php echo "hi there"; ?>
EOF

From :help \@<=
The part of the pattern after "\@<=" and "\@<!" are checked for a
match first, thus things like "\1" don't work to reference \(\) inside
the preceding atom. It does work the other way around:
