    A direct answer to your question would be to write a batch job:

    net stop MSSQLSERVER
    net start MSSQLSERVER
    

    and schedule it in Windows Scheduler.

    However, I wonder:

    1. Why do you need a nightly index rebuild at all?
    2. Which memory you want to free and why? DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS will purge the buffer pool which is the only thing that will be seriously affected, but why would you want to clean it?
