If I want my site to be no.1 for a particular keyword search, would it harm me or help me if I put alt="keyword" in all of the images I have in the site?

This sounds spammy. It's keyword-stuffing. Don't do it.

What you should do instead is write good, descriptive alt text for all your images.

It might help you, though probably not nearly as much as you'd like to think. What's more important is that it would be abuse of what alt text is actually for: to serve as a replacement for the image if it doesn't load, and as an accessibility feature for visitors who may be using alternative(eg. screen reader) browsers.
In other words: don't do this.
