Try:

set fileName to "file.pages"

set myFolder_alias to choose folder
try
    tell application "Finder" to set myFile to (first file of myFolder_alias whose name is fileName)
on error
    return fileName & " does not exist in " & myFolder_alias
end try

set myAlias to myFile as alias
set myHFS_Path to myAlias as text
set myPosixPath to POSIX path of myAlias
