hope this code helps you 

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();

//9 AM 
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 9);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0, new Intent(context, YourClass.class), PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
am.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, pi);

you should create BroadcastReceiver to receive intent.

read the documentation for further details

The second parameter to setRepeating() on AlarmManager is when you want the alarm to go off first. Set that to be 9am tomorrow using a Calendar object, and use an RTC or RTC_WAKEUP alarm.
