looking at the xenomai docs [1], there are two rt_alarm_create() functions,
one for kernel-space and one for userspace:

int rt_alarm_create (RT_ALARM *alarm, const char *)
    Create an alarm object from user-space.

int rt_alarm_create (RT_ALARM *alarm, const char *name, rt_alarm_t handler, void *cookie)
    Create an alarm object from kernel space.

It seems you are using the wrong one.

For a user-space alarm example and other code-snippets look in the directory
ksrc/skins/native/snippets/
