How to launch app using alarm without app UI?

I’l like to schedule an Alarm API to launch my application. When the alarm is triggered, I want to execute some steps of codes without launching the application UI. Is there any way to do that?

Also if the application is already running at the time of the alarm, it should not affect the running process, but some steps of codes needs to be executed in background. Any suggestions?
