How old is the alpine? anything before 2004 does not have keys. if you remove the trim ring, you will see release tabs ( i guess thats what you call them ) on both sides. it is pretty simple to figure out once you the trim ring off.

Just stop by any install shop and ask them to do it. Tip the guy $5.

You cant just go out and buy Alpine keys anywhere. You should go to your nearest alpine dealer and see if you can buy a set of one of their installers. Most installers keep the keys when they install a radio, meaning they probably have multiple sets. If it is a cool install shop they should sell you a set cheap. Or look on ebay you might get lucky.
