Default Frost heave and drain tile

Last year I had to to dig a trench and lay drain tile to divert water
from the downspout around some new landscaping berms.

Anyway, the higher portion of the 3" drain tile was buried about 3"
underground. It heaved up over the winter.

Any way to prevent this from happening in the future?
