A quick search came up with three solutions. None of them are Gnome -
specific, but they should work.
xmms-alarm - which is available via yum
kalarm - you'll have to install some portion of KDE
DASC - http://www.davefancella.com/software/dsac.html
I've not tried any of them. DASC (a Python application) built cleanly
and started up under Gnome.

just my two cents . . . .
