Edit: Didn't see your last post.

You said that you have an alarm system. Is there a way to reset the alarm? You may be dealing with a bad alarm which can cause starting problems. Not sure if there is a simple way to disable it. You may have to remove the alarm.

The noise may be a different issue. You will have to locate the noise once you get the car started.

Look for an alarm reset button/switch under the driver dash, can be at under dash cover, the hood release area, etc.

While pressing the reset switch, turn the ignition on.

You will have to locate the source of the noise now that the car is running.

You can use a piece of hose as a mechanic's stethoscope. Be careful not to get the hose caught in the moving parts when the engine is running.

You can also use a broom handle to hear your parts on your car when it's running or one of those small wooden baseball bats kids use.
I keep one next to my drivers door just for that purpose .... and for other things of course.
Careful so you don't knock your head off when doing it.
