Or use a battery pack of 4 cells, 6V no regulator required.
PP3 are a pretty useless power supply except for very low current circuits.

Voltage is not the issue here , you need more current.

Phone chargers are 5 V mostly, do you have one of those ?

wex52:
indicated that the Arduino would be sufficient for a one-motor demonstration.

Only for a very low consumption motor.

Most require more current.

BTW
Delay(500);
What is that for ?

One of these clips to your battery clip and gives 6V which you can use directly.

For safety though you should use current limiting, a wall wart would probably be better
