I'm basically looking for something, software as such, which is a clock/alarm. I've tried searching google, but none of the websites given are popular, and could be rubbish.

Would be greatful if you could help me out :)

What operating system are you using? I use XP's Scheduled Tasks to play an MP3 at a certain time, works just like an alarm clock :)

Easy option;

http://www.forrestheller.com/alarm2_2/

It most probably comes under the non-popular sector, but it does the job. You always take the risk of a program not doing harm to your computer, even its a reputable source.

More effort required;

Start > Search: 'Task Scheduler' and open it > Action > Create basic task > Give it a name and description (can be anything) > Choose when you want it to happen > Give it a Time > Choose the option to remind you (if you want a sound, then choose 'Start a program' ) > Click browse and find the song/anything you want to play.

And your done.
