If you look at the value for AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY (or any of the other constants) you will notice that they are millisecond values. So just determine the number of milliseconds between now and the desired wakeup time and pass that value to AlarmManager.set().

Setting the alarm is the right way or i should say the better way or setting an Event in Calendar is better.

If setting an Event in Calendar is better then do you know how to Use Calendar Events , i mean setting and retrieving Events.
