Hi;
Here's a test script that I just tested on my 12.04 *buntu host.
It's a cut down version of what I use to set the alarm on my
system before it shuts down:

Instructions are in the top of the file.
You run it *as* root with the sudo command. You don't need to
*become* the root user and then run the command. Fine line I
guess.
When I do it, the output shows the following:
rtc_time : 15:10:44
rtc_date : 2013-08-30
alrm_time : 15:11:44
alrm_date : 2013-08-30
alarm_IRQ : yes
...
HPET_emulated : no
...
It was 10:10:44 local time when I ran the command.
