i think your Redis container does not expose ports outside for connection, only the commander exposes 8002. (try connecting to localhost:8002). docker compose creates a default "bridge" network so the containers can talk between themselves, but not outside unless you expose ports. the commander can connect to REDIS since they are on the same network.
