Interesting idea, though unless you really want to feel like digging your feet into the coding you might have more fun taking a look at FlipClock (the upcomming new version is very quick and customizable, so perhaps you could make a custom theme for it to make it into want you're after....)
Trust me when I say that the idea of an alarm clock might seem very simple, but to do it properly and well takes a lot of time and hard work! Good luck though, if you want some help with anything let me know I'l try to share my experiences with Flip...
