Using Microsoft.Web.Administration you can do:

ServerManager iisManager = new ServerManager();
Application app = iisManager.Sites[“NewSite”].Applications[“/Sales”];
app.VirtualDirectories.Add(“/VDir”, “d:\\MyVDir”);
iisManager.CommitChanges();

you can do this in c#. worked for me.

using (ServerManager srv = new ServerManager())
{
    var site = srv.Sites.FirstOrDefault(c => c.Name == siteName);
    var app = site.Applications.Add("/SubDirecory1/SubDirectory2", acbphysicalPath.Text +  @"\SubDirectory1\SubDirectory2");
    app.ApplicationPoolName = txtAppPool.Text;
    srv.CommitChanges();
}

You can do this in PowerShell.

From Learn IIS

PS IIS:\> New-Item 'IIS:\Sites\Default Web Site\DemoVirtualDir1' -type VirtualDirectory -physicalPath c:\test\virtualDirectory1
