The function you are looking for is preg_match

http://php.net/preg_match

preg_match only returns the entire match. To my knowledge you can not
have a portion, enclosed in parenthesis, of the regular expression enclosed.

From the above url:

If matches  is provided, then it is filled with the results of
search. $matches[0] will contain the text that matched the full
pattern, $matches[1]  will have the text that matched the first
captured parenthesized subpattern, and so on.

If I understand your question correctly, this should be what you are after.
