Your serpentine belt is squealing. You can try to clean your belt if it is in good shape - I dug all the little rocks out of mine with a screwdriver and washed it in dish soap - or more likely, your belt tensioner needs to be replaced.

Depending on mileage I would change the tensioner, But you also need a belt it sounds like. Here try this when it is squeeling pour some water on it when it, if it goes away change the belt. When you have the belt off spin all the pulleys and make sure they turn smooth [except the crank] [the bottom pulley] . Have fun.:D
