There should be a belt tensioner pulley that is able to slide back and forth to tention the belt. Loosen that fully then take the belt off that will also be the same for the alternator if it is a V-belt Drive. if it is a serpentine belt the one belt will release the pressure from All the Pulley's.

How do you install the AC belt on a 94 Toyota Corolla dx?

There is a small idler pulley that also serves as the ac belt tensioner. Loosen the 14mm nut on that pulley then right behind that pulley is a 14mm bolt. Turn that bolt counterclockwise to loosen belt enough to remove the belt. But before you can do any of this you will have to move 2 other belts in order to fully remove ac belt and replace it.
