I don't think you will be able to get the Automation Id of the scroll bar. The scroll bar might be or may not be visible sometimes.

I am assuming you might be using some model to bind the datagrid columns. In the model override the ToString() method and you can assign this to AutomationId property of each row.

Instead of looking for a scrollbar, just find and select an element in the last row of the grid. That should automagically scroll you to the bottom of the grid.
