If you haven't seen it, http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Timesconf might be of use to you.

On the other hand, you can create an input that defines a token you can use as the values for earliest and latest in the search string.

If you provide more detail or an example of what you're trying to do, we can provide a more effectives solution/recommendation.

The way I handled this recently was to forego the time picker and use a multi-select in concert with the automagic "date" field. Note: I've limited the date picker here to the last 15 days, so as not to overtax the SH. Adjust the parameter to meet your needs.

<input type="multiselect" token="DATE_tok" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>Date</label>
      <choice value="*">Any</choice>
      <prefix>(</prefix>
      <suffix>)</suffix>
      <valuePrefix>date="</valuePrefix>
      <valueSuffix>"</valueSuffix>
      <delimiter> OR </delimiter>
      <fieldForLabel>date</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>date</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>sourcetype="SplunkNinjaDataSource" | stats count by date</query>
       <earliest>-15d@h</earliest>
       <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
    </input>

Just add the token $DATE_tok$ into your search, and you're off to the races.

If you select same date in both textboxes , it is automatically equivalent to 1 day. i.e. if you are selecting 05/27/2015 in both text boxes, it actually means 05/27/2015 (00:00:00) to 05/27/2015 (24:00:00).
As of now, I think there are not any available parameters under timerangepicker module which can help us achieving this.
