The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24982 you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 2021 Mazda 3 Sedan AWD and is a great option for a bike rack due to its 200lb tongue weight rating.
Depending on what type of bike you have there a few different options but ill recommend a cost effective option and a more premium option.
For the cost effective option the Swagman Trailhead 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # S63360 is a great choice that can carry two bikes weighing up to 35lbs each.
A premium option is the Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" Hitches - Tilting # TH9045 which has two padded frame hooks to keep from scratching your bike, and can accommodate two bikes weighing up to 50lbs each with tires up to 5" wide.
I included videos for both of the bike rack mentioned, and a link to the written instructions of the # 24982 for you to take a look at.
