There are usually only 3 wires to an alternator. The heavy red power output, a light field input, and the chassis ground.
There are about 20 different types of Geo Metro alternators, so I can't be sure, but I doubt your extra wire are for the alternator. Often a wiring harness will have all the possible wires, whether they are needed or not, such as AC, etc. Look at one in a used car lot or salvage yard.
Not sure if you are talking about wires from Metro harness or radio? Radios usually have red for power or hot, black is usually ground and yellow is probably the lights inside the radio. Try taking a VOM meter and verifying the wires if you know how to use one. red should be hot, black on ohms scale should conduct to the neg or ground. Yellow should have power (battery voltage) when you hit parking or headlights if I'm correct. If not may be the power antenna wire if it's from the radio, not used in most cases.
