Would you please check the following?

A student booked an appointment last night at around 9:30pm to be exact but I didn't get any email regarding/for the appointment.

"Around 9:30" is not exact. You can either say "around 9:30" or "at 9:30, to be exact".

Use "regarding".

Did they book the appointment at around 9.30pm last night or did they book it for 9.30pm last night?

Yes. At around 9:30 and the appointment took place the day after that between 8:00am-9:00am

To make it clearer, I'd make the whole thing longer and rearrange it.

At about 9.30pm last night, one of my students booked a one-hour tutoring session with me for 8am today. Unfortunately, I didn't receive an email notification of the booking.

I assume that you didn't tutor him, as you had no idea that he had booked.
