I'd suggest to make that 0~alpha1~r07970.
Assume There will be a 1.0 version some day, then
dpkg --compare-versions 'alpha1~r07970-1' '>>' '1.0-1' && echo true
true
so you'd need an epoch then
dpkg --compare-versions 'alpha1~r07970-1' '>>' '1:1.0-1' && echo true
which is usually quite annoying.
I guess that is way Policy 5.6.12 says:
"The upstream_version may contain [...] and should start with a digit."
