Try to open a command prompt to run as administrator and type in PowerCFG - lastwake it might tell you what woke your computer or if you put in PowerCFG -waketimers it should tell you what is scheduled to wake your computer up.

You need to check your BIOS to see if you accidentally enable the alarm on auto start. If your BIOS support it.
