Instead of just using "alternative" can we use "an alternative" to make the sentance more appropriate.

It should be alternate. Alternate means something or someone that serves in place of other. You can't choose the other option.
Alternative means there is a second option, however the other option can also be picked up. Refer to the internet for the differences.

Kindly mention the details of the error here.
The answer is "Alternate" because:
E.G. 1) I am going to give you an ALTERNATE WAY.
E.G. 2) I am going to give you an ALTERNATIVE.

But why shouldn't it can be another? Because if there is no alternative then it means it is definitely to find a another way.

Alternative is adjective.
Alternet is a verb.
We can't use 2 verbs so I use an adjective.
