I had the same problem with my 2006 BRV, the light came on whenever I went on the highway and accelerated. I went to the dealer and they said it was a software issue, they reprogrammed something and I haven't seen the red light since.
If the battery light comes on occasionally during acceleration or uphill driving, go to any GM dealership and ask them to look up a TSB on a Rendezvous battery light on issue. It takes one hour labor to reprogram the computer. If the light is on all the time, it's the alternator.
Its prolly a Charging system issue. Does the battery ever go dead? my best advice is if you have an autozone around they can test the charging system while its in the car. just hopes its not the alternator that requires tilting the engine forward and isn't an easy task.

Will check engine light go off after I drive awhile since it came on after the battery was changed?
Replacing the battery should not have triggered the check engine light. The check engine light comes on when there is a problem with the emission system. Saying that, I would drive it for a while to see if the light does go out. If the light does not go out have the ECU scanned to retrieve the trouble code. Then use this code to diagnose the problem.
