soon: yakında 
"çok geçmeden" is used generally for past or in stories.

What about "Birazdan"? Is it the same as "Yakinda"?
Thank you once again

"birazdan" is like "a few minutes later"
but "yakında" means some long term, such as a few days, or weeks.

I have to/must go home now.
Simdi gitmem gerekiyor.
For have to/must...why don't you use the "meli" tense here? Is it rude to use this tense, or just wrong to say for example Simde evdem gitmeliyim...

In my humble opinion, in Turkish, -meli is used for general statements, like heath: "everyone should drink milk", "herkes süt içmeli"
But if you are taking about/to someone specific, like about yourself, we never use -meli. It's only used in translations of Holywood films.
And if we wanted to say like you mentioned, it would be like this:
Şimdi eve gitmeliyim
eve: to home
not "evde" or "evdem".
