I have a 2019 1500 Classic and I would like to program the DRL location to the front parking lights. In AlfaOBD there is no selection for front parking lights. Does anyone out there know if this can do done another way?

You can set the turn signal as the DRL not the running lights.
Low Beam, High Beam, Fog lights or Dedicated is also an option.
For the Dedicated option, trucks that came with the OEM projector headlights have the wiring available, if the truck came with the standard reflector headlights you would need to add the wiring.
Depending on the radio in the truck, you can also turn on the DRL option to enable them via the radio.

I know that Made for Canada Rams Must have DRLs

USA Rams could be changed to have them
Dealerships would change from US to Canada, using the Wi-Tech device
Then they go to the BCM / Lights
Sales Codes
Then they have a choice of
LM1 Low Line – Quad Halogen
LM5 High Line - Projector
or
LMK Low Line – Quad Halogen

..............................................................

other OBD2 programmers that can be used DRLs

You can't set to parking lamps, you're only option is turn signal. Unless you can get the developer to try and add marker/parking lamps as an option.

I have switch back lamps installed in the parking light/directional. They work ok but it would be better if the white parking light could be programmed for DRL and leave the amber lights for directional only.
