You can set an alarm using Alarm class see here

or You can not access this uri. but you can use below code to set an alarm with Alarm Clock,

Intent i = new Intent(AlarmClock.ACTION_SET_ALARM);
    i.putExtra(AlarmClock.EXTRA_HOUR, 9);
    i.putExtra(AlarmClock.EXTRA_MINUTES, 37);
    startActivity(i);

You ll need to add permission in manifest given below

<uses-permission android:name="com.android.alarm.permission.SET_ALARM"/>
