NL10 - calling 99 OP vs iso raise

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) BN: $8.79
SB: $18.24 (Hero)
BB: $10.00
UTG: $11.75
MP: $12.25
CO: $10.00
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is SB with 9 9
UTG raises to $0.30, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.25, BB raises to $1.50, UTG folds, Hero calls $1.20
Here I sometimes struggle with these kind of pairs. I think calling is ok here vs. UTG, but maybe even a raise is fine. Since I had no stats on him I just decided to flat. The isolation raise by BB makes it a fold I think. I am not really sure why I called here when I reviewed this hand. I think too many hands crush me here to go for a set here.
Flop ($3.30) Q 4 Q
Hero checks, BB bets $1.10, Hero calls $1.10
I called here because on a paired board like this my 9s could be good vs. Ax hands.
Turn ($5.50) Q 4 Q A
Hero checks, BB checks
River ($5.50) Q 4 Q A 6
Hero bets $3.22, BB folds
since we both checked the turn I thought I am never good here but I have to bet because I could also make hands like TT, JJ and KK fold. He probably would also check back AK on the turn I guess. But I thought this spot is a good bluffing spot on the river because he has to fold a lot of his other hands.
Final Pot SB wins $5.25
Rake is $0.25

overall I think that I just should have given up preflop when 3bet. I am mostly interested in my thought process on the turn and river though. Do you think it is fine to bluff here? I think otherwise my 9s won't ever be good with a showdown here.

Thank you!
