I am trying to stick a entitlement to every new case getting created

I am writing a trigger where every new case gets an entitlement that I created automatically. I want the same entitlement for every case even if the accounts are different. What I have done so far I have created a entitlement process and created a dummy account. I then created a new entitlment with the entitlement process and dummy account. I then put entitlement in my case layout so when I create a case I can search for the entitlment and append to any case. I want to make the entitlement stick to every case that gets generated automatically without me selecting it in my case layout.

trigger AddEntitlementToCase on Case (before insert) {
    // Get the Id of the entitlement process and dummy account
    Id entitlementProcessId = ...;
    Id dummyAccountId = ...;
    
    // Create a list of entitlements to add to each new case
    List<Entitlement> entitlements = new List<Entitlement>();
    for (Case c : Trigger.new) {
        Entitlement e = new Entitlement();
        e.EntitlementProcessId = entitlementProcessId;
        e.AccountId = dummyAccountId;
        entitlements.add(e);
    }
    
    // Insert the entitlements
    insert entitlements;
    
    // Map the entitlements to the cases
    Map<Id, Id> caseToEntitlementMap = new Map<Id, Id>();
    for (Entitlement e : entitlements) {
        caseToEntitlementMap.put(e.CaseId, e.Id);
    }
    
    // Update the cases with the entitlements
    for (Case c : Trigger.new) {
        c.EntitlementId = caseToEntitlementMap.get(c.Id);
    }
}

Note: You need to replace ... with the actual Id of your entitlement process and dummy account.
