iPhone alarm clock, with date?

One of the peculiariities of the iPhone clock is that you can only set an alarm by TIME and not by DATE. That is, if I want an alarm to go off in two days at a particular time, the iPhone Clock won't do it for me. So how do I make that happen? I understand that I can schedule events in my calendar, and that I can set it up to issue notifications, but on one event I want an audio alert tone - BEEP!, and the rest I'm happy with maybe just a banner notification. How do I select, for any given event, what kind of notification I want for just that event?

Are we talking the Calendar app? I don't see a Tag button. on iOS15.7. When it asks me about an alert for that event, it's just how long before the event you want to get an alert. I want to specify what KIND of alert/notification I get for that event. What does the notification have to do with a location? I want my notification on my iPhone, wherever that is!
