I would not recommend using the cat's regular carrier for this because he could develop a really serious aversion to it and this is not good when you need to transport him somewhere. But a slightly larger crate - like a dog crate might not be a bad idea. It's a matter of quietly and firmly picking up the cat when he disturbs you and placing him in the cage. No scolding or anything. He'll probably figure out very quickly that noise gets him unwanted attention and he'll stop. Be sure he has water, but no food. And of course don't leave him in there for more than a few hours while you are getting some rest.
