It isn't the alternator if you can start it the first time (if the battery
had not been removed it was charged which is one of the functions of the
alternator).

I would suspect compression issues - maybe head gasket.

I would start it up, let it run as you did before, turn it off then loosen
all the plugs (no need to take them out but let them be loose)..
Try starting it again (it won't start). If it turns over easily then there
may have been too much compression.

If so check the oil and oil filler cap. If it looks slightly brown and a
little like chocolate then coolant is leaking into the oil.
