Try setTimeout:

document.onload = setTimeout(function () { alert('msg'); }, 5000);

jQuery solution:

$(document).ready(function()
{
    setTimeout(function()
    {
        alert('msg');
    }, 
    5000);
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis./ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

Use setTimeout, not setInterval. I kept the answer as verbose as the question.

Try this:

$(document).ready(function(){
    setTimeout(function(){ alert("msg");}, 5000)
})

do not forget put jquery reference to your html header:

<script src="http://code.jquery./jquery-2.1.3.min.js"></script>
