@Renato, the Alarms API does provide the ability to change the ringtone
of an alarm. However it is a question of design as to where to place it
in the UI i.e in the clock app or the system-settings.

Title:
  It's confusing to use the Incoming Call sound for Alarms

Status in The Date and Time Indicator:
  New

Bug description:
  indicator-datetime is currently playing
  /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/phone-incoming-call.ogg when an alarm
  goes off.

  This was chosen because it's the closest conceptual fit from the
  ubuntu-sounds that are available, but IMO a poor fit. Using the same
  sound for two unrelated events is confusing; we should have a
  separate, unique alarm sound.

  Assigning to Design for feedback.
