I'm not sure I understand -- you are asking to set an alarm if the application is not running? You can't. You need to have some piece of your application running, so it can call on to the AlarmManager to set the alarm. After that, you don't need to run any more if you are delivering the alarm to an IntentReceiver declared in your manifest -- when the alarm goes off it will launch your app to deliver the alarm.
To deal with system restarts, you can register for the BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast, which is sent when the system finishes booting in to the home screen.
