Also, is it possible to programmatically create alers for specific
keywords like contains "some word" as I did not see anything
specifically available within the User.Alerts.Add method as it takes
only three parameters (list/listitem, event type (all changes,
etc),alert frequency)

I know we can do it from the SP Portal GUI, like we can create alers
for areas, lists, etc, but most probably we may not be able to do
everything (like creating alerts for areas) by using SharePoint API
programmatically.
