If you are talking about alert for any disabled user account, better enable active directory auditing and create a alert for Security log for event ID’s 4725 (User Account Management task category).

Set email alert for an event

If you are trying to monitor a single user, then PowerShell script is better option..

Setup a scheduled task on all of your DCs that uses event triggers. When account management is audited at the DCs, an event is logged to their security event logs. You can define an action that notifies you very simple using powershell mailing.

Steps:
1 create and right away disable a test account
2 open the DC's eventvwr and in it, the security log. Search for the username (1) so you'll find the event number and all.
3 create a task that gets triggered by this event and sends you the event (2) as body
