Hello,
You can't redirect non-sef URLs because they are used by Joomla itself. Redirect tool is only for SEF URLs. Additionally, URLs that begin with index2.php are generally meant for popups and such and are not processed at all by SEF Advance, so you can't use alias either.
I suggest you use redirect in .htaccess if you want to redirect this link.

Thanks for reply Emir,
But I've already tried with the .htaccess (forgot to mention it), so, could you give me the example of the rewrite rule that I should use to do that please.

Well such questions take pretty much time of testing and trying but I found it for you this time.
Try:right after the line:
RewriteEngine On
If you have your installation in a subdirectory add it before /rss.feed so it reads:
RewriteRule ^index2\.php$ /subdirectory/rss.feed? [R=301,L]
Try:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} index2.php
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^option=com_rss&feed=RSS2.0&no_html=1$
RewriteRule ^index2\.php$ /rss.feed? [R=301,L]RewriteEngine On
If you have your installation in a subdirectory add it before /rss.feed so it reads:
RewriteRule ^index2\.php$ /subdirectory/rss.feed? [R=301,L]
