Yes, that's pretty much what I was suggesting.

The SDK has a clock program in its sources directory. Maybe that can be modified for your purposes (like stretching it to fit the display) and doing the alarm stuff. If you don't know C/C++, you're in for a steep learning curve, at least for displaying the time full-screen. But with the working clock program in the SDK, you can add stuff to it bit-by-bit, checking to see that if builds and works each step of the way. It's not a bad way to learn C.
