Needs["Graphics`Colors`"];

For GridLines at the major ticks use the Plot option GridLines -> Automatic

For a dense grid, i.e., GridLines at all ticks, then

Show[
    p1 = Plot[(x-3)(x-6), {x,0,9}, 
        PlotStyle->Red,
        DisplayFunction -> Identity], 
    Frame -> True, 
    Axes -> False, 
    GridLines -> (#[[All,1]]& /@ 
          (Ticks /. AbsoluteOptions[p1])), 
    DisplayFunction->$DisplayFunction];
