You won't be able to stop in the middle of day out of the box, but that's not a problem, you can always truncate your output during post-processing if you want.
You don't need Python or whatever, but you just need a way to calculate the run period as you want it. You can do that manually, with excel, with python, etc.
eg: You want to run from january 1st, mignight to hour 1700. Ceiling(1700/24) = 71. January 1st offset by 71 days gives you March 13.
