Alternative for AlarmManager.setExact android api 18 and less

I am developing an android app that uses AlarmManager. The app has to be very accurate, but AlarmManager.setExact is available only from API 19 (Android Kitkat), and I have an old phone that its android version is 4 (API 16). I tried using a service, but it stops when I lock the phone. I need an alternative that works for APIs below 19. Does anyone have an idea?

Just set(). Before API 19, set was an exact set. setExact was added when set was made inexact.
