Open the alert in the Edit Alert screen.    

 

The Alert schedule drop down has several options, including Run Every Hour, Run Every Day, Run Every Week, and Run Every Month.    If more granular options are needed you can choose "Run on Cron Schedule" to be able to schedule the alert using a standard CRON schedule string.
