Narrative:

We departed with IFR flight plan. I was sitting in the right seat and taking care of communication and navigation; and the pilot sitting on the left seat was flying the airplane. About 15 mins after departure; we noticed that left alternator is failed; and decided to return to ZZZ. I called center and got clearance to ZZZ. After we had runway in sight; we cancel the flight plan with center; continued visual approach. We approached from west of the airport; straight in. We approached all the way to the runway and landed with landing gear up. The airplane stopped on runway heading to the north. The bottom of the airplane and both propellers have been damaged. Nobody got injured. We could have prevented this if we have done gumps check. And also; we should have paid more attention to the warning horn and airplane's attitude.
