The Urakami clan was a Japanese clan that was settled at Bizen Province during the Sengoku Period of the 16th century.

The death of Urakami Norimune in 1502 resulted in Matsuda Motokatsu seizing the opportunity to lead a full-scale assault on the Urakami. A major retainer of the Urakami was Ukita Yoshiie, who led 300 troops in the attack against the Matsuda clan, during which the Urakami were allied with the Ukita.
