You need look at kron command. See Cisco command reference. And write something like this:

configure terminal
    kron policy-list policy-day10pm
        cli tclsh tftp://tftp-server/tcl-script.tcl 
        exit
    kron occurrence day10pm at 22:00 recurring
        policy-list policy-day10pm
        exit
    exit
show kron schedule
>> policy-day10pm inactive, will run again in 0 days 08:05:41 at 22:00 on
